I just had a orthovisc injection in the knee can this cause you to be hot? what happens if you stand more than 1 hour or exercise after having orthovisc injections?

For 48 hours after the injection, avoid prolonged standing,jogging,heavy lifting, all of which exert strain on the knee. After that you can resume normal activities. In my patients with osteoarthritis, results were mediocre& it may take up to a month before seeing some pain relief. Some patients may receive a second dose down the road if pain returns. Your treating MD can advise you better,however
