Common Questions and Answers about Hyaluronic acid x rays

Avatar m tn Because you are asking about hyaluronic acid, and because of the recent addition of GAG's to pharmacy shelves, I think it's important to address a few points about the uses of these compounds therapeutically. On the up side, hyaluronic acid is the same from whatever source it is isolated, and it is so common in the body that it can be used as a hypoallergenic surgical material for reconstructing and building up tissues that are lost.
Avatar f tn I am 46 and have both knees scoped over 10 years ago for meniscus tears and tore my ACL 25 years ago and never got ift fixed which my ortho doc had x rays and thought I was in early stages of OA. I was not prepared for this, as my knees actually fell worse than the pain I had before. To all who have had these injections before, did you find the pain or feeling was different than before?It's been just 30 days since my first injection and 10 days since my last one.
Avatar m tn Could it cause vision problems, I have seen that the main ingredient of restylane is Hyaluronic acid, I have found a topical cream that is 75% hyaluronic acid, I know this wont work as well but do you think this is an option or not even worth spending hte money on the cream. Any comments or experiences would be great.
Avatar m tn Whereas the Cosequin does this through the digestive system, the injection delivers the hyaluronic acid (which I assume is what will be used...or some variation of it...) directly into the joint. I would always go the conservative route first, then you can consider surgery. I would discuss the options with your vet, in what order he/she thinks you should progress based on the severity of the OCD. Are you near a reputable equine hospital?
Avatar m tn 1. Several physicians have propose hyaluronic acid or cortisone injections. Which is recommended? 2. One physician offered to perform a chondral transplant, consisting in taking fresh chartilage from my knee and implanting it in the toe, with arthroscopic surgery. Would you recommend it? What is the likelihood of success and the possible complications?
Avatar n tn I'm taking Ameriden Olive Leaf Extract - 6 caps a day, I was instructed to take only this brand. Plus Glucosamine 1500mg 3 X a day and hyaluronic acid (cushions joint) 100mg 3X a day. It'a lot of pills but would rather do that than take drugs with bad side-effects (had really bad reaction to Celebrex). You can go to the website Arthritis Help For Me ******* for more info.
Avatar m tn Went in to make sure nothing was wrong, and they took 3 X-rays. One cervical spine, 2 lumbar views. I stood against a white background and she pointed the X-ray machine to the area, but the machine was about 2-3 feet away. She did not place a lead shield on me while conducting these X-rays. I'm very concerned I was exposed to too much radiation?! Plus I am breastfeeding, and my breasts were never covered.
Avatar m tn I got my reStor implants over two years ago, and never received any warnings about X-rays and such. Since then, I have had X-rays, an MRI, and gone through lots of airport scanners, and my opthalmologist says my eyes and lenses are fine.

Avatar f tn As long as you were shielded properly you will be fine. I am a radiology technologist and I get asked all the time about it since I am pregnant. Patients always question why I'm taking x-rays pregnant. I always shield pregnant ladies with 2 shields. The radiation was just to your wrist which is a small amount. I wouldn't worry about it unless you weren't shielded.
Avatar m tn No better or worse. Exercise, diet, Cordisone and Hyaluronic injections acid, rubs, creams, fat stem cell shots...Knee ex-rays show I do have medial bone on bone in knees and osteoarthritis (OA). I felt a bit like I had a brain fog so I got checked out for that. One test after another. MRIs and auto immune test. inconclusive but what lead to further test was something in my blood told doctors I could have an auto immune but not which one. Doctors also said my B12 and D6 were way low.

Avatar f tn Hello, I went to the doctor to have a filler injected into the eyes dark circles area, the syringe with the gel (hyaluronic acid) was not new, I know because he took it out of a box but the blister was not sealed, I also saw that the gel in the syringe was not completely full, I saw that he took a needle with a cover from the blister, so I think the needle was new, and he placed it on the tip of the syringe with gel, I am worried that the gel (hyaluronic acid) has been contaminated with the bloo
Avatar n tn I haven’t told anybody that I have but exposed to battery acid but family; up until I had the x-rays last week this was probably the most extreme thing that has happened. One thing is odd is after I had the x-rays I've been experiencing earaches, headaches, and mouth pain but they didn't do anything to my teeth other than x-rays and looking in my mouth. Are there any tests I should have done now that I'm positive that my exposure to battery acid is causing my medical problems?
Avatar m tn Can somebody from the old school on this hep.
Avatar f tn That means i have to take a lot of x-rays on patients. My dentist had me stay away from taking x-rays for the first trimester, but now he thinks i am past the risky stage in my pregnancy and i should start taking x-rays again. What do you think?
Avatar m tn We have to do some spine X-rays for our child this year? We are very concerned about radiation and possible long term effects. She has had 2 panoramics teeth and 2 xrays for her shoulder over the years. Now they need about 4-5 spine X-rays. What is the risk??
Avatar m tn The doctor said our child needs about 4-5 X-rays over the next year. In the last 10 years she has had 2 dental panoramic, bite wings, 2 shoulder X-rays. Should I be concerned about radiation at this point?
1694492 tn?1372902994 Two weeks ago I got a couple of chest x-rays because of a cough I had since last August. The technician told me it'll take 2-3 days for the scans to come in. I have heard anything since...from my primary physician or the radiology center I was at. Does that mean I'm fine? I'm seeing my doctor this Tuesday which is normal...I see him every two weeks since I am weaning off of my medication. But I'm sure if there was something wrong they would call right away, right?
