meniskus - injection
Hello everybody! I had a meniscus surgery two weeks ago. My diagnosis was:
Ds: Right knee-joint medial meniscus is harmed, with blocage, hypertrophy of Hoffa, arthrosis (M23.9)
Treatment done:
(NGSD11) Knee-joint meniscus partly cut out: arthroscopic
(NGSF00) Knee-joint fluid ruga ablated.
(NGSF33) Knee-joint cartilage partly cut out.
Medicine to be taken:
Hyalgan (five injections) or ViscoPlus (single injection) in joint after 3 weeks.
PRP Three injections after 3 weeks.
Question:
These injections are quite expensive. Are there any other injections/medicine as alternative ways?
PS Sorry for my "home-made" translation - I'm not English native speaker and I'm not a health professional...
