What is Knee Osteoarthritis?

Knee osteoarthritis is a joint condition that occurs when the protective cartilage around the joints in your knee wears down, causing your bones to rub against each other. The joint fluid then loses its shock-absorbing qualities, resulting in pain and stiffness.

This typically occurs as a result of age (women over 55 are especially prone to developing the condition). However, other contributing factors can also play a role, including:

  • Overweight problems
  • Heredity
  • Athletics
  • Repeated stress injuries
  • Other arthritic conditions or metabolic disorders

Symptoms of Knee Osteoarthritis

If you have knee osteoarthritis, you’re probably experiencing a great deal of pain. In mild cases of knee osteoarthritis, you’ll usually experience about 30 minutes of stiffness each morning. In this case, mild activity can provide some knee pain relief as it works to warm up your joints. If you have a more moderate form of the condition, however, you may notice increased levels of pain when you’re active that eventually seeps into resting time as well. Additionally, growths can sometimes form at the end of your bones, intensifying pain.

In more severe cases, you’ll start to experience limited movement and constant, severe pain that makes doing daily activities difficult.

Knee Pain Relief in Maryland

If you have been diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis, we may have the treatment you’ve been looking for. At Pain Arthritis Relief Center, we offer viscosupplementation injections that can help you achieve knee pain relief and improve your range of motion without surgery.

FDA approved and proven highly successful in helping knee osteoarthritis patients find some relief, viscosupplementation injections involve injecting hyaluronic acid into your knee joints. This substance, which acts as a lubricant to prevent your bones from rubbing together, should be found naturally in your joints but tends to occur in low concentrations for those with osteoarthritis.

Including physical therapy as part of the treatment is also important. The knee joint is part of a bigger kinetic chain that requires strength and balance for pain free movement. At Advanced Spine & Wellness Center, we will customize a specific strengthening and balancing program for you to complement the amazing effects of viscosupplementation.

What should I wear to acupuncture sessions?

You will want to be as comfortable as possible during treatments. It’s important that the acupuncturist is able to access various points of the body. Wearing loose clothing is helpful and allows your acupuncturist to easily administer treatment. Either wear comfortable clothing or bring a change of clothing with you to make treatments as comfortable as possible. 

“Acupuncture can actually help to relieve stress and has the ability to provide patients with an alternative and natural method for treatment.”

Will I be able to relax during treatments?

Acupuncturists can provide you with a relaxed setting to receive acupuncture treatments. Often, they may lower the lights, turn on a sound machine and even a heat lamp. Acupuncture can actually help to relieve stress. Because of this, many people may find that once needles are placed they are able to fully relax and may even fall asleep.
