Precision Therapy for Patellofemoral Osteoarthritis: The Role of Arthrosamid in Targeted Knee Pain Relief
Patellofemoral osteoarthritis (PF OA) affects many adults over 45, causing knee pain and mobility issues. Arthrosamid, a polyacrylamide hydrogel injection, offers targeted, long-lasting relief by cushioning the patellofemoral joint, reducing friction and pain. Clinical studies show Arthrosamid is effective for up to two years, with minimal side effects, especially in…Patellofemoral osteoarthritis (PF OA) affects many adults over 45, causing knee pain and mobility issues. Arthrosamid, a polyacrylamide hydrogel injection, offers targeted, long-lasting relief by cushioning the patellofemoral joint, reducing friction and pain. Clinical studies show Arthrosamid is effective for up to two years, with minimal side effects, especially in patients under 70 with mild to moderate osteoarthritis. Administered by experts like Professor Paul Lee at MSK Doctors, it provide...

What is Patellofemoral Arthritis?
Patellofemoral arthritis is the degeneration of cartilage under the kneecap, often caused by wear, previous knee injuries, or improper kneecap alignment. Common symptoms include knee pain during stairs, sitting, or squatting, potentially leading to chronic discomfort and reduced mobility if untreated. Diagnosis involves clinical examination and imaging like X-rays or…Patellofemoral arthritis is the degeneration of cartilage under the kneecap, often caused by wear, previous knee injuries, or improper kneecap alignment. Common symptoms include knee pain during stairs, sitting, or squatting, potentially leading to chronic discomfort and reduced mobility if untreated. Diagnosis involves clinical examination and imaging like X-rays or MRI. Early intervention and physiotherapy are essential to manage pain, increase knee strength, and prevent further joint damage. Complications can include chronic stiffness and the need for surgery in severe cases. Adopting preventive strategies—such as low-impact exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, and seeking prompt medical attention for persistent knee pain—can help reduce the risk of progression and support long-term knee health.
