What Causes Pain In The Right Knee After Taking Uloric?
Yes, I have a question. I am presently taking Uloric. I have been taking this for 3-4 years, on a daily basis. I have been experiencing right knee pain. (I see some of the side effects, is joint pain) I am about to go through knee injections done by my Orthopedic doctor, next week. This is what they call joint fluid treatment where they inject Hyaluronic Acid (natural joint fluid) into my knee, over a three week period. Taking Uloric, is taking away those acids, and getting the injections is putting it back into my knee. Is there a conflict between the Uloric and the Hyaluronic injections?
