Dr Lee is my trusted consultant for my knees as he repaired a tricky meniscus tear for me previously. He is always friendly, pleasant and provides very detailed explanations of what is going on with the joint. He also uses ultra sound to give an instant impression of where any issues lie which is immensely reassuring. I highly recommend him for any lower limb joint treatments.

Introduction to Arthrosamid® Knee Injection Arthrosamid® knee injection is an innovative treatment for osteoarthritis, specifically designed to provide relief from knee pain. Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease often associated with aging, but it can also result from previous injuries or genetic predispositions. Common symptoms include chronic pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility in the knee joint. Early diagnosis and targeted treatment are crucial for managing this condition effectively. Understanding Arthrosamid® Knee Injection An Arthrosamid® knee injection involves injecting a gel made of polyacrylamide into the knee joint. This gel acts as a cushion, reducing friction and providing lasting pain relief. Unlike cortisone injection in knee, which provide only temporary relief, Arthrosamid® aims for long-term benefits.
