Here’s To A Pain-Free New Year
Winter often brings increased knee pain, making daily activities and festive plans more challenging. Many patients seek minimally invasive solutions to manage discomfort without surgery.
In this blog, we explore how Arthrosamid® injections can provide long-lasting relief, cushioning the joint and improving mobility, helping you stay active and comfortable throughout the colder months.
Why Patients Consider Arthrosamid® in the Winter
Many patients notice that their usual routines, walking outdoors, exercising, or even getting up from a chair, suddenly become more uncomfortable as the temperature drops.
For patients who want to stay active, avoid escalating pain medication, or delay surgical options like knee replacement, Arthrosamid® provides a minimally invasive solution that helps maintain mobility during the most challenging months.
How Hydrogel Injections Support Joint Health
As osteoarthritis wears down cartilage and reduces natural lubrication, the joint becomes stiff and painful. Hydrogel injections, such as Arthrosamid®, support joint health by restoring lost cushioning inside the knee.
The hydrogel integrates into the joint lining, reducing friction and enhancing smooth movement. This added cushioning helps alleviate discomfort and supports better mobility for extended periods without the need for surgery.
Understanding Arthrosamid®: How It Works
Before deciding if it’s the right option, it helps to understand exactly how Arthrosamid® works within the knee to deliver long-lasting pain relief.
What Arthrosamid® Injections Do
Arthrosamid® injections work by introducing a soft, long-lasting hydrogel into the knee joint, where it integrates with the synovial lining to provide extra cushioning. This reduces friction, eases pain and helps the joint move more smoothly.
The result is improved comfort and mobility, particularly for individuals with osteoarthritis who seek meaningful relief without undergoing surgery.
Who can get Arthrosamid® Injections?
Arthrosamid® injections are typically suitable for adults experiencing knee pain due to osteoarthritis, particularly when symptoms interfere with daily activities and surgery isn’t yet necessary.
Candidates usually have mild to moderate joint degeneration and are seeking a minimally invasive treatment to reduce pain, improve mobility, and delay or avoid knee replacement.
A thorough assessment by a healthcare professional is essential to determine if Arthrosamid® is the right option for each individual.
Pain-free in Time for Christmas
With winter knee pain at its peak, timely treatment can make all the difference in enjoying the festive season. Arthrosamid® injections offer long-lasting relief that can help reduce stiffness and discomfort, allowing patients to stay active and participate in holiday activities with greater ease.

Reviews and Patient Experiences
After decades of competitive sport and a lifetime on the rugby pitch, the impact and strain on Ian’s knees had worn away the cartilage in both joints. But instead of knee replacement surgery, Ian discovered a promising new alternative: Arthrosamid®.
Following treatment at The Horder Centre, Ian said: “My goodness, it’s some sort of miracle. Just two weeks ago, I was rotovating the garden for two hours. The ground was so hard that I broke the rotavator. At no point did I notice I had bad knees.”
Cost Considerations: Arthrosamid® vs Knee Replacement
When weighing treatment options for knee pain, understanding the cost differences between Arthrosamid® injections and knee replacement surgery can help patients make an informed decision.
What Determines the Cost of Arthrosamid® Injections
The cost of Arthrosamid® injections can vary depending on several factors. These include the severity of the knee osteoarthritis, the number of injections required, the complexity of the procedure, and the level of pre- and post-treatment care provided. Additional considerations such as imaging guidance, consultation fees, and any follow-up appointments can also influence the overall cost.

Comparing to Total Knee Replacement
Because Arthrosamid is minimally invasive and requires no hospital stay, patients avoid many of the additional expenses associated with knee replacement surgery. For those looking to manage knee pain effectively while delaying or avoiding major surgery, Arthrosamid offers a cost-efficient alternative with far less financial and physical burden.

Could Arthrosamid® use prevent the need for a Knee Revision Surgery
Arthrosamid® injections are designed to provide long-lasting pain relief and improved mobility for patients with knee osteoarthritis, which can help delay, or in some cases, reduce the need for, knee replacement or revision surgery.
While it may not replace the need for knee replacement in every case, early intervention with Arthrosamid® can be an effective strategy to manage pain, improve quality of life, and potentially postpone more invasive procedures.
