Non-injection treatments for arthritis in knee

Posted by detc @detc, May 11 4:12pm

I am looking for suggestions for treatments for arthritis knee pain that do not involve cortisone shots or gel shots (hyaluronic acid). Can anyone suggest a safe, effective hyaluronic supplement or topical cream instead? Are there any other completely non-invasive options?
I have an issue with a heightened immune system that can become overstimulated and cause neuropathy problems. Thank you for any possible solutions.

I had the gel done in both knees. My insurance did not cover it, but the company gives a great discount. I paid $300 for 3 shots per knee. It was worth it.

I want to get HLA shots in each knee tomorrow. When you say 3 shots per knee, were the shots a week apart? Or....? Has the successful result remained?
