Osteoarthritis
"I had Synvisc-One injections about three weeks ago in both knees.  A few years ago I also has the injections over 3 weeks with no serious pain or after effects but lots of relief for 18 month&#039;s at least.  This time with just one injection my experience was horrendously painful during and after for 24 hours.  I had to be taken to my car in a wheel chair after the injections due to pain and swelling.  Ice did help. I wish he would have numbed the area 1st, I think that would have helped.  For 2-3 weeks after the Synvisc-One injections I had pretty significant ankle and foot swelling that I&#039;m sure were from the injections.  I am beginning to feel improvement now again.  I think I might opt for the 3 injections next time, less pain."
