Ultrasound-Guided Injections: Ostenil/ synovia Injection

What is Synovia/Ostenil?

 Ostenil and Synovia are hyaluronic acid-based injectable treatments designed to alleviate joint pain and improve mobility, particularly in cases of osteoarthritis. This treatment is especially beneficial for patients who experience discomfort in weight-bearing joints, such as the knees and feet.

Pain Relief: Hyaluronic injections help to lubricate the joint, reducing friction and alleviating pain associated with osteoarthritis.

Improved Mobility: By restoring the natural cushioning in the joint, Ostenil can enhance mobility and function, allowing you to return to your daily activities with ease.

Long-Lasting Effects: Many patients experience relief for several months following a single injection, making it a valuable option for long-term pain management.

Minimal Downtime: The procedure is quick and can often be performed in an outpatient setting, allowing you to resume normal activities shortly after the injection.

Consultation: Your journey begins with a thorough consultation where our podiatrist will evaluate your condition and discuss your medical history.

Ultrasound Imaging: Prior to the injection, ultrasound imaging will be used to visualise the affected joint and assess the best injection site.

Injection: Using a fine needle, the Ostenil or Synovia solution will be carefully injected into the joint space, guided by real-time ultrasound for precision.

Post-Procedure Care: After the injection, you will receive tailored advice on post-procedure care, including activity modifications and follow-up appointments.

Hyaluronic acid  injections are ideal for individuals suffering from osteoarthritis or joint pain who have not found sufficient relief from other treatments such as oral medications, physical therapy, or corticosteroid injections. Our podiatrists will help determine if Ostenil or Synovia are the right choice for your specific needs.
