Every person reacts to hyaluronic acid injections differently, but the majority of people who go through with them notice an immediate improvement. On the very same day as the injection, pain and suffering begin fading away. There is no downtime, and people can return to their regular schedules right after the appointment.
After the initial treatment, results can last for several months, or up to a year. At that point, it’s time to either get another set of treatment or explore other options if the injections didn’t provide the relief one is seeking.
Every medical treatment out there has a few side effects for people to look out for. Hyaluronic acid injections have very mild side effects, and a low chance of them occurring. Side effects after therapy may include bleeding, blistering, itching, muscle pain, nausea, and headache.
If people do you experience any side effects, they are most likely occurring during the first treatment session. After that, the body knows what to expect, and the side effect risks fade away.
Injections are often looked at as the first option when treating osteoarthritis and consistent knee pain in general. While a knee replacement is effective, most people want to avoid going under the knife and experience such a long recovery if possible. In some ways, injections are the same or even more effective than surgery, specifically if people seek treatment for pain early on.
There is a much higher risk of complications with knee replacement surgery compared to injections. There is also no guarantee that knee replacements will stay in great working order for the rest of a person’s life. There are many cases where people constantly are forced to go back for additional pain relief after going through the surgery. Some who went under the knife for surgery years ago are now needing hyaluronic acid injections to live with the current pain.
Finally, not every insurance company covers all the different types of injections. In the past, people have had trouble receiving approval, but insurance usually covers at least two HA injections per year. It fights against inflammation, while also restoring the natural property of fluid in the knee. Insurance companies understand its effectiveness for serious health issues.
Since the entire process involves replenishing the knees with fluid the body naturally relies on, this is a very natural, straightforward treatment that is a viable option worth considering.
Alternatives to surgery are as popular as ever. People enjoy saving time and money while improving their health. With more and more medical professionals and patients embracing this treatment, hyaluronic acid injections are in as high demand as ever.
