Hi,

I'm looking for some feedback on the use of Synvisc for OA in the knees. After surgery that was somewhat successful I am still in pain and the next step my physician wants to take is injecting Synvisc.

From what I've read there is no real down side to these (except minor local irritation as a regular side effect).

If anyone has had good or bad results I'd love to know.

Thank you.

I had 3 injections over 3 weeks. Unfortunately, it did nothing for me. It was not particularly painful. It works for some people and not for others. It is worth a chance.
