Hyaluronic Acid injections can be an effective treatment for knee and hip osteoarthritis, particularly when other pain-management options have not provided sufficient relief.

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance found in joint cartilage and synovial fluid, where it helps lubricate and cushion the joints. As we age, natural levels decline, which can contribute to joint degeneration and arthritis-related pain.

At MyMSK Clinic, we help restore this lost joint lubrication using Ostenil injections. Treatment options include a course of Ostenil injections given over several weeks, or Ostenil Plus — a single injection enhanced with mannitol that can be topped up when needed.

If joint pain is affecting your mobility, book a consultation with us today to explore whether this treatment is right for you!

How is Patellar Tendonitis treated?

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is an advanced treatment option for patellar tendonitis, using a small sample of your own blood to create a concentrated dose of healing platelets. This PRP is carefully injected into the injured tendon to stimulate tissue repair and reduce inflammation, with ultrasound guidance ensuring precise placement.

Following treatment, a structured rehabilitation program helps restore strength, flexibility, and function. PRP therapy is often recommended when conservative treatments such as rest, medication, and physiotherapy haven’t provided lasting relief.

This treatment is available at our MSK clinic — book your appointment today and take the next step in your recovery.

Struggling with shoulder pain?

Shoulder calcification (also known as calcific tendonitis) can appear suddenly with intense pain, or develop gradually as a chronic condition with repeated flare-ups over time. It’s one of the most common causes of shoulder pain we see.

While it most commonly affects adults—particularly women aged 40–60—it can also occur in teenagers and, in rare cases, children due to various factors.

Tennis elbow is most commonly a chronic condition.

It occurs due to overuse and damage to the forearm muscles, tendons and the other muscles surrounding the elbow by doing repetitive movements.

These, in turn, causes inflammation or mild tears in the tendons, a process known as tendinitis or tendon degeneration.

Here are some common activities that cause tennis elbow:
-Playing racquet sports like tennis, squash and badminton
-Sports that involve full arm extension and throwing (overarm throwing)
-Lifting weights frequently
-Repetitive hand and wrist movements in activities like typing
-Occupations involving repetitive hand grasping like bricklaying
-Regular use of hand tools in occupations such as painting

At MyMSK we provide Cortisone or Platelet-Rich Plasma injections to ease the pain caused by tennis elbow.

The Rotator Cuff is a group of four muscles which help stabilise and at the same time mobilise the shoulder joint, the most mobile joint in the body.

These four muscles are the supraspinatus, subscapularis, infraspinatus and teres minor.

The most common injured muscle in this group is the Supraspinatus muscle (responsible for initiating the lifting of the shoulder in a sideways arc direction).

At MyMSK we offer a range of different treatments for Rotator Cuff injuries, including prolotherapy, cortisone, and PRP injections.

Are you experiencing lower back pain?

This could be lumbar facet joint pain!

Lumbar facet joint pain is commonly caused by several factors including degeneration and trauma.

Overuse of any joint over many years can cause it to become Degenerated and Arthritic.

This is because the constant friction between joints causes wear and tear not only of the cartilage, but also of the bone and the capsule.

At MyMSK we help to relieve lumbar facet joint pain using Cortisone injections given at the facet joints, or Prolotherapy around the joints or ligaments.

Are you suffering with shoulder pain?

Shoulder Calcification can present suddenly with severe pain in the shoulder or be a chronic condition with several flare ups in the preceding months.

It is one of the most common causes of shoulder pain. Calcific tendonitis or shoulder calcification is a common adult condition but it is also diagnosed in teenagers due to various reasons.

Shoulder calcification is more prevalent in women than men. It involves people between 40 to 60 years of age. It is rarely noticed in children but sometimes can occur due to multiple reasons.

Delaying Knee Replacement? Arthrosamid Injections can be a game changer!

Hearing the words “you need a knee replacement” can be a crushing feeling. It brings with it the daunting prospect of major surgery, anesthesia, a long and painful rehabilitation, and significant disruption to your life.

For many, the idea of replacing their natural joint is al step they’re simply not ready to take, leaving them feeling trapped between chronic pain and a major operation.

But what if there was another way? A scientifically proven, minimally invasive treatment that could provide such significant and long-lasting pain relief that the prospect of surgery moves from an impending reality to a distant possibility?

For a growing number of osteoarthritis (OA) sufferers, this is now a reality.

At MyMSK Clinic, we are at the forefront of providing a revolutionary treatment called Arthrosamid, an injectable hydrogel that is proving to be a true game-changer for patients looking for an effective alternative to knee surgery.

This isn’t just another temporary fix; it’s a long-term strategy to manage your pain, improve your function, and help you take back control of your life!

Book in now to discuss whether this might be the option for you, either in our Burnley or Manchester clinic!
