Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative, progressive, disease that results in chronic pain. OA can affect any body part, but it is most commonly seen in the knees, hips, low back, and small joints of the hand. Joint pain and stiffness can make your daily tasks seem impossible. Don’t let arthritis stop you from living your life!

The medication is injected into the joint, under ultrasound guidance, and results in reduction in pain and inflammation caused by the underlying arthritis. During this procedure we are also able to remove or drain any excess fluid that has accumulated in the joint. Long acting steroid injections also available.
Injecting hyaluronic acid into the arthritic joint will act as a shock absorber and will help facilitate movement, reduce pain, and keep the arthritis at bay.
PRP is still considered experimental; however, clinical trials, along with our extensive experience, demonstrate the potential benefits of PRP in reducing inflammation, pain, and improving patient functionality.
