- Hi Everyone! Especially to my subscribers! Sorry for the late upload of this video. I had a crazy month of July and August, but I'm back! Before I left Barcelona mid-July, I did my second knee infiltration of Hyaluronic Acid. I thought it was a perfect time to do it before going on a trip to the Philippines.
I started feeling knee pain last May, which made me feel uncomfortable playing beach volleyball, so I decided to do it before it got worse.
Surprisingly, the second injection is more painful than the first one. It was swollen for almost two days, but my knee is doing perfectly okay right now.
My Traumatologist also advised me to avoid the knee surgery "Microfracture" when I told him I was supposed to undergo this surgery in 2020.
How about you? Do you have any experience with knee infiltration? How was it? Please comment down below. I want to hear your story.

It is very useful....to hear ur experience
Glad to hear that
Thank you for this! I’m now 35 and I was diagnosed with Grade 4 in both knees a few years ago (I’ve been athletic all my life, and played college indoor volleyball). I’m in physical therapy (again lol) but it’s to the point where I need to do something about more for the pain in my right knee. Doc mentioned open knee surgery for me, but I’m trying to start a family and I don’t have time for that right now lol. I’m gonna give this injection thing a shot. But ouch! I felt your pain with this one 😖 but I hope you get some relief. Let us know how long this one lasts for you! Feel better ☺️👍🏾🦵🏾
Someone also suggested doing open surgery on my left Knee, but that is not an option for me now. I have a little project which I started a year ago, and I can't just afford to be in recovery for a couple of months...It's weird because he told me doing the injection this way is less painful, but it was more painful than my first one.
I just returned from Zurich and played volleyball for 3 consecutive days. The Knee was good. Didn't feel any pain, but my right shoulder is killing me now. I was supposed to also do surgery on my right shoulder, but I have been postponing it because of work.
I hope it works for you too! All the best! Let me know
this seems to be affecting so many people. I didn't realize until I was diagnosed
What type of open surgery ?
How's your pain now after injection
how is your pain now
i messaged you on your other video. how do you find the treatment? did it cure your chondromalacia? i am planning to visit later December after I email them first. thx
Any knee specialist can do the treatment. Check out Top doctor's website. This won't cure chondromalacia. It's a temporary solution to ease the knee pain. Good luck.
Bro. Hi! I hope to You re happy. I have a question. Why Did you the second knee enjection? İsnt One enjection enough?
This treatment is to relieve the pain temporarily.
@@renkunvlogs thanks bro
Hi Ren, i would like to have a chat with you. I too have grade 4 chondromalacia and i am shocked but still getting my head around it.
I just found out I have grade 3 and 4 in both. I am so shocked. I am super active and have never had pain. The only reason I got the MRI is because my left knee started catching and locking. How did I not know I had this issue?! I’m lost and very emotional as a super active person.
Hi sorry! Just replying to your message now; I feel awful. I hope you feel better and that you have found someone to help you with your knee problem.
I was very emotional as well when I got the result of the MRI. Took me some time before I accepted that I have a fu***d up knee since I love playing beach volleyball. I'm just grateful that the Hyaluronic acid infiltration still works for me.
Hi bro just want to ask which knee support your using when your playing sports?
So sorry for the late response. I never used a knee support when I played. As you can see from some of the videos I played, I didn't wear any knee support.
Hi, do you have cracking and grinding sounds in your knee and did it improve or stop after you got the hyaluronic injection?
Hi Ivet, I never had the cracking and grinding sounds in my knee, even before the hyaluronic injection.
Hello I have Patella chrodomolacia gradus 3-4. Defect of cartillage in center of pattela is 10 x 5 mm. I am a football player. Today I get hialoronic acid. Do you have the same problem of injury or something else ?? I can do a lot of things but fast uncontrol moves, jumps and one leg squad like you show in video I can t do. But doctor says to me that because of defect, he doesn t know if the acid will help me. But I can t imagine my life without football. Do you think we got similarly injury, if we got, probably I have a good chance to play footbal again? :)) thank you for videos and answers..
@@ervinjogic6613 I have chondromalacia Grade 4. I play beach volleyball, and I feel the same. I was supposed to undergo a surgery called Microfracture Drilling on my left knee in August 2020, but when I asked the Doctor if I could play my sports again, he told me he was not 100% sure... That's why I canceled it. The Last July, I mentioned this to the Doctor who injected the hyaluronic Acid into my knee. He told me that he doesn't recommend this Surgery. So I thought I made the right decision when I canceled it.
Two weeks ago, I met my former beach volleyball trainer on the beach. He told me that he did this Surgery where they took cartilage from his left ear and put it in his knee..He said it worked for him, so he recommended this to his other friends with the same knee problem.
I will ask him for more details about this Surgery and will let you know.
Based on my experience, I can recommend that you try it. It may or may not work, but at least you are doing something..also don't forget your knee exercises.
@@renkunvlogs Thank you very much for your answer. :) Did the your trainer had the cartillage defect on pattela or somewhere else ? thank you again.. We stay in touch :)
@@ervinjogic6613 He has a lot of knee problems. He did the MicroFracture Surgery but told me that I should avoid that because this actually made his knee worse. So I just messaged him and asked about his surgery and what exactly knee problem he had. I will let you know asap. No worries. I'm glad to help in any possible way I can.
hi, what injection you are taking for? it is for Reduce inflammation?
I did it to reduce the inflammation and pain in my knee, although everyone responds differently to it. I remember the first time I did it, and my knee pain completely disappeared the next day. The second one, I think, was after three days of the injection.
Brother Have you tried prp injection?
No, but maybe I will if the Hyaluronic Acid stops working.
did your knee swell often when Regenflex BIO-PLUS faded off after the first inhection? What are the options after the third injection since the doctor said 3 is the maximum? Have you also tried the knees over toe guy program?
When the first injection was wearing off, I felt knee pain going up and down the stairs and couldn't play volleyball without feeling any pain. Maximum 3 injections in a year. Knees over toe guy program? No.
I was diagnosed with Grade 4 chondromalacia patellae I’ve been looking into different treatments. Where did you purchase the medication to inject ?
Usually, they have it in the hospital, but more expensive. So I bought mine in the pharmacy. I'm sorry for not getting back to you sooner. Hectic working schedule.
@@renkunvlogs thats ok and same in Jamaica its very expensive and not sold in pharmacies there so ive been trying to source it elsewhere
@@kvymagic have you taken this injection?
How's your pain after injection?
@@travelingwithhemant4616 ye I tried it and it did not help.
@@kvymagic how's you deal with pain ? Nowadays u can play sports
How’s your knee? Brother hope you feel better
My knee is doing fine! The second knee Injection is still working up to this day.
@@renkunvlogs I’m glad you doing great brother. My doctor said I have Chandromalacia and he want to do surgery my knee is bad I can’t not even climb stairs specially going down the stairs. I’m glad you doing fine brother
Have you doctors recommended any surgical treatment and what type of surgery? Brother I’m injury is very depressing to me. I can barely walk
I have consulted several knee specialists regarding my knee problem and got different opinions. Some advised me to undergo a microfracture drilling procedure, some told me to inject hyaluronic acid and do some serious knee exercises, and some told me to avoid microfracture surgery because it doesn't last long.. for me, surgery is the last option that's why I tried the hyaluronic infiltration first, and fortunately, it's working for me. If you're going to ask me, try the conservative treatments first before you decide to do the surgery. @@Cybernetic263
@@renkunvlogs thanks, brother
How's your pain after 2nd dose of injection?
It's been 1 year and 5 months since my last injection, and my knee is still good. I last played in September 2023 because I'm busy with work, and I just had my shoulder arthroscopy 3 weeks ago.
How long do you have chondromelicia patella ?
I think it has been for almost 7 years now.
When do you know that you have chondromelicia patella?@@renkunvlogs
@@renkunvlogs and which grade ?
@@haidymohammed3539 Well, I started to feel pain, especially when I was going up and down the stairs. Also, when I played beach volleyball, it bothered me a lot.
@@haidymohammed3539 It's on the video. Grade 4.
Why don’t you try cartilage pasting
I've been to several traumatologist but no one suggested this "cartilage pasting"
Bro post vadio please
So busy lately but will post one soon!
@@renkunvlogs how's your pain brother now?
Have you tried PRP?
No, I haven't tried PRP, but it was recommended by a few traumatologists. It's also not that cheap :/ Have you tried it?
@@renkunvlogs Didn't mean to take so long to reply (I wasn't prompted anywhere of your reply). I tried one PRP injection but I don't think it really helped. But, then again, I also hear that PRP is typically helpful with a series of injections (like 2 spaced apart a few weeks each).
How is your knee now?
@@harveysangha1779 It's alright. Yeah, I have friends who play BVB who did PRP, but if I remember it right, they all had at least three shots in total. My knee is okay. I am not playing any sport at the moment because I had shoulder surgery last December. However, I think I might need to do the 3rd shot of hyaluronic acid if I try to play again in the future because right now, I feel a bit of pain when I do a particular movement, but nothing severe at the moment.
Does it heal without surgery ?
I mean chondrmalacia grade 4 can be healed without surgery ? , if i give time and rest and stop sport
Unfortunately, no surgery can heal the cartilage. Even if you rest from sports for years, it won't regenerate. What you can do is strengthen the muscles around the knee area.
@@renkunvlogs There are procedures that can regenerate knee cartilage MACI and ACI surgeries can do just that.
@@James-lu4hb I've been to 8 knee specialists in Barcelona, but everyone told me there's no way to regenerate knee cartilage. Microfracture drilling might work, but it is not recommendable to do anymore. My volleyball trainer did that, and his knee got worse after a couple of years. Last time he told me, they took cartilage from the back of his ears and put it into his knee. Seems to be working for him. Anyway, thank you so much for the info. I'll make sure to mention this on my next visit.
@@renkunvlogs I had a friend who had chondromalacia patella grade 2-3 and he had MACI surgery and in a year he was back running marathons and hiking.
Kasay sir g
Bro try stim cell treatment
Sir replay
Bro same problem my knee grade 4
Bro I am so sad 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😢
You are not alone, if you'd like to talk about it
How are you doing with your knee problem?
Have you thought about MACI? You can't keep hammering that cartilage.
No. My knee specialist didn't recommend it.
Are you pain free after the injury?
I only feel pain-free because of the Hyaluronic Injection. Without it, I wouldn't be able to play, and even going up and down the stairs would be a pain.
Did physio therapy work for you
I tried a few sessions, but they were not cheap. That's why I decided to Inject Hyaluronic acid into my knee.
