How Arthrosamid Treatment Works

Arthrosamid is a non-biodegradable hydrogel injected directly into the knee joint, where it integrates with the synovial tissue. This enhances the cushioning effect of the natural joint fluid, reducing osteoarthritis pain and improving movement. Unlike steroid injections, which provide only short-term relief, treatment with Arthrosamid has been shown to offer lasting benefits for up to four years.

Benefits of Arthrosamid Injections

  • Long-Lasting Pain Relief – Unlike other treatments for knee osteoarthritis, Arthrosamid provides sustained relief by modifying the joint environment.

  • Minimally Invasive – This articular injection is performed as an outpatient procedure under local anaesthesia, avoiding the need for surgery.

  • Improved Joint Function – Patients often experience enhanced mobility and reduced synovial pain after their first treatment.

  • Alternative to Surgery – For patients looking to delay or avoid surgical treatment, Arthrosamid is a safe and effective option.

Who Can Benefit from Arthrosamid Treatment?

Arthrosamid is suitable for patients with knee arthritis who have not responded well to other injections such as steroid injections or hyaluronic acid injections. It is particularly beneficial for individuals seeking long-term relief without resorting to surgery.

What Experts Say About Arthrosamid

A recent article in The Times highlighted the growing interest in Arthrosamid injections as a breakthrough treatment for knee arthritis. Medical experts and patients alike have praised its ability to provide long-lasting pain relief and improve joint function without the need for invasive surgery. One consultant noted that treatment with Arthrosamid offers a significant advancement in non-surgical options for osteoarthritis pain.

What to Expect from Your First Treatment

At our clinic, the procedure is carried out under local anaesthesia and typically takes less than 30 minutes. The injectable hydrogel is administered into the knee joint, where it begins to work immediately to cushion and lubricate the area. Most patients experience noticeable improvements within a few weeks, with optimal results seen around 12-14 weeks.

Comparing Arthrosamid to Other Treatments

  • Steroid Injections – Provide temporary relief but may require repeated treatments and have diminishing effectiveness over time.

  • Hyaluronic Acid Injections – Offer short-term lubrication but do not provide the same long-lasting structural support as Arthrosamid.

  • Surgery – A more invasive option that comes with longer recovery times and higher risks.

Risks and Side Effects

As with any articular injection, some patients may experience temporary swelling or discomfort at the injection site. However, serious side effects are rare. The clinic team will provide full aftercare guidance to ensure the best possible outcome.
