I took this myself, hands behind the back. these are where the injections are, and they go all the way to the bone before being released. it sucks.
so far i've had: dextrose, polyethylene glycol, glycerine, procaine, marcaine, lidocaine, sodium murruate, pumice (suspended in glycerine), testosterone and human growth hormone injected in my back, hip and a few times in my groin.
the doctor drew this and took a photo. i asked for a copy, but he said no, and left the room to get the needles. when he came back in, he caught me taking this. i think he actually said something like, "nice shot." Very funny.
this is what it looks like after the shots. it is extremely unpleasant beginning around hours 2 afterwards.

“Some things are worth waiting for” – While true, this statement is problematic for patients suffering from excruciating pain while waiting to have knee or hip surgery. Fortunately, there are procedures you can entertain while counting down the days (or even months, or even years) until you are seen by the surgeon.
Depending on where you live, the health-care system could be overloaded. In reality, it likely is. Having a years-long waiting list is not uncommon in some communities. Mix in a deadly pandemic and all bets are off when it comes to being treated in a timely manner. Hospital beds are full, surgeries are cancelled, rehabilitation offices are closed – and suddenly fixing a knee or hip is not a priority. The problem is the pain does not go away by itself.
It is ideal to consider alternative therapies leading up to knee or hip surgery that provide comfort in the short term or eliminate the need for surgery altogether.
Many patients consider pain relievers while suffering through the discomfort. These might provide temporary and minor relief, but do not get to the root of the issue. They are not designed to fix or heal, but rather ease the pain and suffering. In a sense, they mask the actual problem. Truthfully, NSAIDs or Advil can make arthritis worse, for instance.
Permanent healing is possible for sufferers using a natural and non-surgical technique involving injections of the body’s own platelets. Known as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections. PRP decreases a patient’s pain and also heals and regenerates his or her damaged body tissue in joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles and menisci.
It works when we draw the patient’s blood, spin it in a centrifuge, and collect its platelets and plasma. The platelets are combined with a portion of the plasma and this mixture is injected into the damaged area. The entire treatment takes about one hour to perform.
Growth factors derived from platelets encourages DNA synthesis, stimulates the growth of new cells and increases collagen deposits. It is one of the alternative medicine field’s most promising treatments for injuries to the human body.
Another treatment to consider while seeking relief from hip or knee pain is prolotherapy injection therapy. This benefits patients who are suffering with a tendon/ligament injury. The process involves strengthening the ligaments and tendons by the injection of a proliferative agent.
The injection therapy includes the use of ozone gas. This further stimulates chondroblasts to produce more connective tissue for the joint. It begins to ease the pain on the joint and begin to repair it. Patients usually encounter brief soreness for one or two days following the injection but also experience less tenderness.
Nerves run within the ligaments and tendons and can be stretched if they are weak. This results in muscles working overtime to compensate for loose ligaments. The pain occurs when the nerves are stretched by the muscular strain. Strengthening those ligaments and tendons can help alleviate the pain.
It should be noted that research shows a ligament that has been injured will recover only 70 per cent of its prior strength without treatment such as prolotherapy.
Patients have positive responses to prolozone therapy and some even avoid hip or knee replacement surgery altogether.
The questions patients need to ask: Can I live with the pain and discomfort until my surgery? Should I consider alternative treatments and therapies in the meantime?
Prolotherapy and/or prolozone might be effective in treating:
Upper and lower back pain
Arthritis
Avoiding hip or knee replacement surgery
Loose joints
Frozen shoulder
Damaged knee ligaments
Sciatica
Pain of the foot, plantar fasciitis
Tennis elbow
Sprained wrist
Chronic ankle sprain
Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ)
Lumbar disc herniation
Rotator cuff injuries
Fibromyalgia
Sports injuries
Neck pain
Tendonitis
PRP treatment might be ideal for treating:
Whiplash injuries
Low back pain
Neck pain
Migraine headaches
Sciatica
Pain related to osteoarthritis
Degenerative disc disease
Temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJ Disorder)
Knee arthritis and meniscal injury
Carpel tunnel syndrome
Tendinopathy, tendonosis
Joint capsular laxity

What is Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome?
This syndrome is really a vague term that encompasses multiple different conditions of anterior knee pain. You may have heard of it as Runner’s knee or Jumper’s knee. In this condition, pain can be located in a number of places including inferior pole of patella (most common), tibial tuberosity (bump at top of shin bone) and superior pole of patella. The pain that occurs is a result of inflammation at the tendon attachment site to the bone.
Why does this Occur?
Most common causes of patella femoral pain include overuse of the area, muscle weakness/imbalance, and trauma. This happens because tendons in our bodies grow and adapt to stress, but they need recovery time to repair before further stress is applied. A.K.A – when you over-work your knees/legs, make sure to stretch and rest before over-working again.
The onset of the pain is a result of repetitive stress on the tendon greater than the rate of the tendon’s ability to recover. This is why rest days, or alternating with low-impact workouts are important to include in your routine.
Pain can also present due to muscular imbalance or weakness. When performing movements such as activities of daily living or more specific exercises such as squats, deadlifts, cleans, snatches, etc. proper technique is not only critical for moving more weight, but also to avoid injury.
Get a Physical Exam
It is important to check with your healthcare provider at PA Pain & Spine to receive a thorough physical exam in order to determine if your knee pain could be contributed to additional issues.
These additional issues may include:
Mobility: ankle, knee, hip, low back, thoracic spine
Imbalance: quads or posterior chain
Weakness: abductors, low back, or hamstrings
Osteoarthritis
Internal Derangement: Meniscus Tear, ACL injury
Finally, is direct trauma to blame? This may be the most obvious to those experiencing the injury because it is a sudden and easily identifiable cause/change via a direct blow, fall, surgery, etc.
How do I Know this is what I'm Dealing with?
Patellofemoral pain (knee pain) commonly presents with local tenderness directly at the attachment site of the tendon to the bone. A quick test for this involves performing a few quick jumps in place resulting in increased pain in the front of the knee.
Trying some isometric holds, wall sits, single leg wall sits, spanish squats for multiple sets and then retesting the jumps can also help determine the issue. The front knee pain should decrease temporarily following these isometrics after increased muscle activation.
If you decide to try this test at home and pain persists, be sure to contact your local provider for further evaluation.
How do I Treat my Knee Pain?
Ask for help! The most important first step is scheduling an appointment with your provider in order to discuss your history and physical exam. This is essential in order to establish a targeted treatment plan moving forward. We can always adjust the treatment plan depending on your pain generator etiologies and set goals as we move forward.
Treatment options for knee pain can also apply to most of the joints in the body (shoulders, hips, elbows, even joint and disc pain in the spine).
Discuss the following treatment options at your next appointment to see which option is best for you!
Corticosteroid injections for inflammation, pain, osteoarthritis
Viscosupplementation series for knee osteoarthritis and internal derangement
Regenerative therapies including: Prolotherapy for tendon pain, Plasma Rich Protein (PRP), Stem Cell injections.
Don’t be afraid of your knee pain! Know the signs, work to prevent injury, and call us if pain does not subside!
