Best Answer

Synvisc and Synvisc One, a series of injections and the later, being one injection, into a joint that lacks cartilage or lubrication as a result of osteoarthritis. The injection consists of a very thick, clear gel substance which contain Hyaluronin, which is found in the combs of rooster heads for example. (And in our joints naturally.) However, over time, this substance can break down, and cause inflammation, fluid build up in the joint, pain, etc. The injections are usually given every 6 months as needed.
