Osteoarthritis is a disease that may cause pain in the joints, a loss of flexibility, tenderness, swelling, and bone spurs. Current research indicates osteoarthritis results from an imbalance of the immune system that creates prolonged inflammation. Until recently, the only treatments for osteoarthritis were oral pain medications, physical therapy, ibuprofen, and joint replacements. Advanced technology has created new and modern methods of coping with the disease that show better results! See all your treatment options when you visit an osteoarthritis specialist in Charleston.

InterveneMD Treatments
-
Pentosan for Arthritis
Regenerative Medicine
Pentosan injections are derived from a compound found in Beechwood trees. It is used to treat osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Hyalgan Injections
Traditional Medicine
Hyalgan injections are made from a moisturizing acid called hyaluronic acid. When pain pills or steroid shots have stopped providing relief, doctors will often turn to Hyalgan injections for knee pain.

Peptides
Regenerative Medicine
Peptides are chains of amino acids that naturally exist in your body, but their quantity decreases with age and disease.
-
Ozone Therapy
Regenerative Medicine
Ozone therapy is a method of delivering ozone, a unique form of oxygen, into the body to reap health benefits. We can administer ozone through targeted injections or whole-body IV infusions at InterveneMD.
