Private Arthrosamid Injections in Worthing

Long-lasting, non-surgical treatment for knee arthritis pain

If you are living with knee pain or knee osteoarthritis, Arthrosamid® offers an advanced non-surgical knee injection designed to relieve pain, improve mobility and help you stay active for longer.

At Goring Hall Hospital in Worthing, our experienced orthopaedic specialists provide expert assessment and personalised treatment plans, helping you access effective knee arthritis treatment without surgery and decide whether Arthrosamid® is right for you.

Arthrosamid® is an innovative knee injection treatment for osteoarthritis, designed to provide long-lasting relief from chronic knee pain and stiffness.

It is made from a soft, water-based hydrogel that is injected directly into the knee joint. Once in place, it integrates into the joint lining and acts as a cushion, reducing friction, easing inflammation, and improving joint movement.

Unlike other knee injections such as steroid or hyaluronic acid injections, Arthrosamid® is non-biodegradable, meaning it remains in the joint to provide ongoing support and longer-term symptom relief.

Arthrosamid® knee injections may be suitable if you:

• Have mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis
• Experience ongoing knee pain, stiffness or reduced mobility

Have not gained enough relief from:

• Physiotherapy
• Pain relief medication
• Steroid or hyaluronic acid injections

Are looking for a non-surgical alternative to knee replacement or want to delay or avoid knee surgery

Arthrosamid® may not be suitable for advanced “bone-on-bone” arthritis or certain medical conditions, so a consultation with a knee specialist in Worthing is essential.

Arthrosamid® offers a modern approach to knee osteoarthritis treatment, with benefits including:

• Long-lasting knee pain relief – many patients experience improvement for several years
• Improved movement and joint function – helping you return to daily activities
• Minimally invasive treatment – no surgery or hospital stay required
• Single injection procedure – typically completed in one appointment
• Non-surgical alternative to knee replacement surgery

This treatment is ideal for patients seeking effective, longer-term knee pain relief without surgery.

Arthrosamid® is a quick and straightforward outpatient knee injection procedure, usually taking less than 30 minutes.

During your appointment:

• Your knee is cleaned and prepared
• A local anaesthetic is used to minimise discomfort
• The Arthrosamid® hydrogel is injected into the knee joint
• A small dressing is applied

You will usually be able to walk immediately after treatment and return home the same day, making it a convenient day-case knee treatment.

Recovery after Arthrosamid® knee injections

Recovery from Arthrosamid® treatment is typically quick:

• Most patients experience minimal downtime
• Mild swelling or discomfort may occur but usually settles within a few days
• Pain relief typically develops gradually over several weeks

Many patients report improved knee comfort, flexibility, and quality of life, allowing them to return to normal activities with greater ease.

Risks and side effects of Arthrosamid®

Arthrosamid® is generally considered a safe knee injection treatment, but as with any procedure, there are some risks.

Possible side effects include:

• Temporary pain or swelling at the injection site
• Mild stiffness or discomfort
• Rarely, infection or allergic reaction

Your orthopaedic consultant will discuss the risks, benefits and suitability of Arthrosamid® with you during your consultation.
