Knee pain not reducing after hytasone in
My mother, age 60, has knee osteoarthritis. She recently received a Sodium Hyaluronate (Hylasto One / Hytasone) injection in her knee. It has been one week, but there is no significant pain relief yet. How long does it usually take for this injection to show effect, and when can we expect pain relief? Also, if there is no improvement, what would be the next treatment option?
