Had a torn meniscus and dr gave me "prolozone" on (b)(6) followed by supartz injections on (b)(6).I received 10 shots to inner side of knee and one shot on outer side.My knee swelled up and turned back and blue for 5 weeks.A vein was punctured and blood squirted out of the holes.The inner side of the knee now had spider vein that i hope will eventually worsen.I visited the doctor, he assured me this was normal.It is supposed to cause inflammation.The meniscus in healing with info i found on the internet, however, the shots to the knee are still causing some pain with the vein that was compromised.Needless to say, i cancelled the remaining 10 injection.The doctor said 10 shots, it may have been too aggressive.
