Can euflexxa injections cause mouth sores?

Aphthous stomatitis: Probably not related to the euflexxa injections. This has not been reported as a known side-effect, but if you feel it is related, reporting this to the fda is an option. Or discuss it with the doctor prescribing these injections.

Not commonly: Euflexxa, sodium hyaluronate, is commonly used as injections for osteoarthritis of the knee. It does not commonly cause mouth sores as a side effect. I would as your prescribing doctor if you have concerns or suspect you are developing sores with administration of the drug. It is possible to have an allergic reaction although it more commonly presents as an anaphylaxis as opposed to just sores.
