At Sydney Chiropractic and Massage, knee osteoarthritis (OA) and associated knee pain is a common condition that our Sydney chiropractor has expertise\u00a0in treating. It \u00a0is considered the most common joint disorder in the world, It is one of the most frequent causes of pain, loss of function and disability in adults. As the knee and hips are considered load bearing joints they are most commonly affected. (1) \u00a0A commonly prescribed supplement for OA of the knee and related knee pain and dysfunction is glucosamine, However,\u00a0findings by researchers have been mixed.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In a 2010 study, published in the British Medical Journal the authors concluded “compared with placebo, \"Sydney<\/a>glucosamine, chondroitin, and their combination do not reduce joint pain or have an impact on narrowing of joint space.” (2) However; in a more recent study published in 2015, the authors found the combination of glucosamine and chodroitin sulpahte “was equally as effective in\u00a0has comparable efficacy to celecoxib in reducing pain, stiffness, functional limitation and joint swelling\/effusion after 6\u2005months in patients with painful knee osteoarthritis<\/span>, with a good safety profile.” (3)\u00a0celecoxib is a non steroidal noninflammatory, with known effectiveness (and negative side effects) and is commonly prescribed in the management of knee pain<\/a> associated with knee OA.\u00a0If you do decide to supplement with\u00a0glucosamine, it is important you have an effective dose of 500 mg as used in the previous study and combine it with\u00a0chodroitin sulpahte 400 mg three times a day.<\/p>\n

A trial period of at least 6 months is needed to establish if you are benefiting from the supplements.\u00a0Other therapies that may be of benefit, are knee strengthening exercises preferably non weight bearing (4) manual therapy (5) and massage therapy (6) have all been found to be effective in the management \u00a0of knee pain and dysfunction related to OA.<\/p>\n
