Thanks for sending this. I've had my knees replaced, fortunately, and they are doing great! Now I am having shoulder pain and getting cortisone shots. These help a little, but I've never had a negative reaction to a cortisone shot.

PRP and HA sound interesting, but they're still band aids IMO. When I have some time, I'll get a TSR. The technology and technique have advanced far and these replacements work IF the patient puts in the required effort as well.

For my kid, PRP has lasted 8 years and she is pursuing a second one.

PRP- Platelet Rich Plasma- internet has good explanation.
I also just saw an add on TV for Iovera a freezing substance injected in the knee to kill the nerve messaging the brain about pain for up to 3 months.
I just started another discussion on Iovera for knee pain. I hope to learn more from other bloggers.
