Alon, I have a horror of setting up a septic arthritis. IMO, joint

injection needs a full surgical prep. I am wary of injecting joints

because I work in the field, under conditions that are far from sterile.

 

I have used simple AP to treat many dogs, and some humans, with

X-ray-confirmed arthrosis, and I am happy with the results on

movement, but would not expect to see much improvement on

subsequent X-rays.

 

That said, some AP vets (and even conventional (non-AP) vets)

inject joints with hyaluronic acid and claim good results.

 

 

Best regards,
