Former professional footballer Colin West recently shared his experience of living with long-term knee pain and osteoarthritis after a career in sport. Despite trying to manage his symptoms, the pain persisted and began to limit his everyday activities.
Colin was referred to Mr Parag Jaiswal, Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon, who specialises in innovative treatments for joint conditions. After a full assessment, Mr Jaiswal recommended Arthrosamid – a minimally invasive injectable treatment designed to provide long-lasting pain relief for people with knee osteoarthritis.
Unlike steroid or hyaluronic acid injections, Arthrosamid is a non-biodegradable hydrogel that integrates with the knee tissue to improve cushioning and reduce pain. The procedure is quick, does not involve surgery, and can offer sustained improvement in mobility and quality of life.
Colin has since reported a significant reduction in pain and an improvement in his ability to stay active, including returning to hobbies such as walking his dog and playing Padel tennis.
