Rooster comb injections | Joint Pain | Hyaluronic Acid

Most hyaluronic acid injections or hyalgan injections are now manufactured artificially using bacterial extraction and genetic techniques.

Drugs such as synvisc, ostenil and other similar products are effective for the treatment of joint pain and osteoarthritis.

When these products were first introduced onto the market some years ago the hyalgan chemical was not manufactured - but rather it was extracted from the combs of roosters. This resulted in these treatments sometimes being called "Rooster Comb Injections"

More sports medicine and orthopedic doctors than ever are now using the modern equivalent of these rooster injections and the results are usually excellent.
