During diagnostic block procedure a small amount of local anesthetic is injected into the anatomy structure to confirm whether this structure is the pain generator.  The result is considered positive if the pain gets 80% weaker after an injection.

The cause of these symptoms is progression of a degenerative changes of a knee joint. Knee osteoarthritis leads to narrowing of joint space and osteophyte formation.The risk factors for knee osteoarthritis are obesity, knee instability, poor posture and age.

Diagnosis is mainly based on patient’s history,physical and radiologic examinations.

In the case of lack of response to conservative treatment one of therapeutic options is applying platelet rich plasma injection (PRP). Platelet rich plasma is a therapy using individual’s own blood. After centrifugation of collected blood we get a plasma very rich in platelets which stimulate regeneration of a knee joint due to release of growth factors.

Many studies confirmed PRP as an effective treatment for knee osteoarthritis.

It works as a foot stabiliser and is active in walking, and running. The Achilles tendon is very vulnerable to sport injury and trauma.

The fresh blood collection undergoes organization and is slowly absorbed afterwards. Such a process may take several months. Evacuation of the hematoma significantly accelerates the healing process and shortens the recovery time in patients doing sport. It is important to evacuate the hematoma before the hematoma organization process begins.

It is a kind of chronic degenerative tendinopathy.

Additional symptom suggesting ACNES is perceptible muscle tenderness at the site of a pain. Risk factors of this syndrome are past pregnancy, caesarean section, surgery and trauma.

This unique feature enables reduction of joint friction during movement and adds cushioning to protect the cartilage during weight-bearing activity. In the course of osteoarthritis the concentration of hialuronic acid in joint fluid decreases. Viscosupplementation is a procedure in which hialuronic acid is injected inside the joint cavity in order to restore the mechanical properties of the synovial fluid and the cartilage.

It is formed by the acatabulum and the humeral head. The main function of the hip joint is to support the posture during standing and walking.

It consists of tibiofemoral joint and patellofemoral joint. Knee joint is very vulnerable for sports injuries.
