German research: Non-surgical knee pain relief
A German study has unveiled a new minimally invasive technique for treating knee joint inflammation without surgery. The method involves a procedure called "popliteal artery embolization" using a fine catheter to reduce inflammation and pain. The results, which included 194 patients who had not responded to traditional treatments, showed an average pain reduction from 7 to 3 degrees over the course of a year, along with improvements in mobility and quality of life. This suggests the procedure could serve as an effective and safe alternative to surgical intervention.
