    Orthovisc Injections

    My arthritis is called patellofemoral (under the kneecap) with mild arthritis in the rest of the joint. I did not have Orthovisc, I had Euflexxa (same thing different companies). This did not help my knee pain, but we did not think it would help. I have tried multiple PRP injections from...

    Orthovisc Injections

    I work in an orthopedic office, and have had the hyaluronic acid injections. They usually work quite well for meniscal tears.

    Meniscus Repair Surgery

    So sorry to hear that you need to have the meniscus repaired. My physician uses bone marrow aspirate concentrate injections when he repairs them, it allows for healing and pain relief.

    Meniscus Repair Surgery

    If you have no pain there is no reason to fix the meniscus. I work in an orthopedic office, our physician tells his patients that meniscal repair will accelerate the development of arthritis. The irrigation used in arthroscopic repair is very acidic and washes away the synovial fluid in the...
