Orthovisc / viscosupplementation
Viscosupplementation is a medical procedure for the treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee or other joints in individuals whose pain has failed to respond adequately to conservative approaches. Often utilized to stop pain by Alex J. Nelson, MD, some may know this procedure to be called hyaluronan injections or hyaluronic acid injections. Brand names of viscosupplementation solutions include Hylagan, Orthovisc, Euflexxa, Supartz, and Synvisc – all of which we use at Peak Health and Wellness. In the procedure, a thick gel with a natural protein, hyaluronan or hyaluronic acid, is injected into the knee joint to provide lubrication and reduce inflammation.
Injections can be an alternative to knee surgery, while others rely on these injections for relief from chronic pain caused by an injury or osteoarthritis.
