X Rays both knee joints with standing position if osteoarthritis type 1 type 2 injection effective in joints( but types 3 .and 4 not effected ) cortisone and hyaluronic are commonly used effect 4 to 6 months
Contact your local Orthopaedic surgeon. I not only do Steroids but hyalgan and PRP depending upon the status of the joint. You can book an appointment through marham
There are a variety of injections. Depending upon the patient’s disease state, those have distinct indications and contraindications. Price also depends upon the type of injection used. Better to get examined first.
