Hyalauronic acid sometimes works for awhile.

HA should not be looked at as a cure. The body produces what you probably heard of called synovial fluid. It's the lubricant for all joints. A quality HA oral supplement does the same as an injection. It helps like oil on a bearing. Like oil, it doesn't refinish the bearing surface. IF the body has the raw materials and is laying down the "oil" consistently, things like pain and wear go away.
That's where other suppliments, habits and food/ diet mods come into their own.



You are way behind the curve. Research it for once instead of just spouting off.


I oversimplified a bit for the reader, but the concept is sound. I'll leave the injections to those who do that, but I have seen plenty of temp relief from HA supplementation.

WebMD
"Your body makes hyaluronic acid. It's a natural part of the fluid that helps lubricate and cushion your joints and keeps them working smoothly.
When you have osteoarthritis (OA), the hyaluronic acid in the affected joint thins. Hyaluronic acid injections add to your body's natural supply. You may hear your doctor refer to these injections as "viscosupplementation," which literally means they help the fluid in your joints."
