@predictable Good evening Martin I have the same back problems as everyone here plus a L2 fracture in 05 it now has my whole left side worse including burning nerves . About 5 yrs ago I also have bone on bone in my thumbs the rheumatologist then injected my left thumb with hyloronic acid it still doesn't hurt I don't know if they can put that in the back joints but it would be wonderful if they could. I just had a cortisone injection in sacroiliac The Dr. wants to give me one in my arthritic knee also for my muscle spasms on left side of back trigger point injection its lidocaine . Waiting for referrel to come through I wonder how long that will last .

Well @lioness, it appears that you and your doctor are working together toward better conditions in your joints. Literature suggests that hyaluronic acid is a good option in many cases, working as a pain killer, tissue rejuvenator, and lubrication proponent. If you have confidence in your doctor, you'll take measured steps toward solutions. For me, avoiding the surgical knife was a primary goal, and so far that's worked! Martin
