If you suffer from knee pain caused by osteoarthritis, Genicular Artery Embolization (GAE) is an innovative, non-surgical treatment option we provide at PrecisionIR. The perfect swing begins with healthy knees, so don’t let knee pain keep you from golfing this spring!
Knee cartilage makes smooth bending and movement possible, but over time, this cartilage wears down. This degradation leads to inflammation, pain, stiffness, and swelling. Severity can vary from mild to extreme, and eventually change the shape of your knee.
Mild symptoms can usually be managed with medications, supplements, and lifestyle changes. But if you experience a significant decline in quality of life due to your symptoms, GAE is an effective and minimally invasive procedure than can help.
GAE targets specific arteries to reduce blood flow to the lining of the knee in order to reduce inflammation and pain. This process enhances mobility and improves your well-being.
A 2021 clinical study demonstrated that average pain scores dropped from 8/10 to 3/10 within the first week following GAE treatment.
