The Science of Durolane: How It Works
Durolane Injection leverages the natural properties of hyaluronic acid to lubricate and cushion the knee joint. This minimally invasive treatment reduces pain and stiffness, facilitating smoother joint movement and providing relief that can last for several months.
Why Choose Durolane Injection for Knee Pain?
Opting for Durolane Injection means choosing a treatment that offers both efficacy and convenience. The procedure involves a single injection, making it a less intrusive and more comfortable option compared to other treatments that require multiple sessions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Durolane’s unique formulation provides longer-lasting relief compared to some other hyaluronic acid treatments, making it a preferred choice for knee osteoarthritis management.
Many patients experience improvement in pain and mobility within a few weeks after receiving the Durolane Injection.
As with any medical procedure, there are potential side effects, but Durolane is generally well-tolerated. Our specialists will discuss any concerns you may have during your consultation.
The main symptoms of osteoarthritis are pain and stiffness that’s localised to certain joints. However, it can also include:
- Tenderness.
- More severe symptoms after periods of inactivity.
- Crackling of grating sound when joints are moved.
- Muscle weakness.
- Limited range of movement.
- Increased ‘knobbly’ appearance at the joints.
It’s normal for patients to experience slight discomfort during the injection, although this can simply be avoided through the use of a numbing agent or localised anaesthetic.
The exact duration of effectiveness of Durolane injections will depend on a range of factors, such as age, degree of injury, the joints affected, and underlying health conditions. A medical professional will be able to provide an accurate forecast during a consultation. However, Durolane is considered a long lasting treatment for relieving knee pain and restoring mobility relative to other options.
