A member asked:
I did a synvisc (hylan g-f 20) injection in the knee called ostenil plus. after this terrible pain since 8weeks. any idea why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See details: Ostenil is a foreign protein so a localized allergic reaction to it could cause pain and swelling of the knee. Your question should be addressed to the doctor who did the injection.
