INTRO
Arthrosamid to Restore Joint Mobility
Arthrosamid is an innovative treatment designed to ease knee osteoarthritis symptoms and provide long-lasting relief from joint pain.
Using a unique hydrogel formulation, this minimally invasive treatment is particularly effective for knee arthritis and hip pain, helping to reduce knee pain and restore mobility without surgery.
We offer Arthrosamid treatment at our clinics in Burnley and Manchester, often the same day and without a GP referral.
What is Arthrosamid Injection?
Arthrosamid® is a non-absorbable, non-biodegradable, injectable gel consisting of cross-linked polyacrylamide (2.5%) and attached non-pyrogenic water (97.5%).
It is also known as an intra-articular polyacrylamide hydrogel (iPAAG)
It is non-toxic and similar to Hyaluronic acid in overall structure and tissue compatibility, but with a longer-lasting ‘viscous’ effect.
When injected into the Knee or Joint with Arthritis or Degeneration, it offers sustained pain relief compared to other injections on the market.
It is a safe and effective alternative to more invasive procedures such as joint replacement surgery.
How does the Arthrosamid Injection work?
As a polyacrylamide hydrogel injection, it is delivered into the knee’s synovial cavity, where it integrates with the joint lining between the thigh bone and shin bone. Unlike hyaluronic acid injections, which are gradually absorbed and only mimic synovial fluid temporarily, Arthrosamid forms a durable cushion that stays in place — which is why a single injection can give lasting relief.

SUITABILITY
While Arthrosamid injections are highly effective for many people, it is important to determine whether this treatment is the best option for your specific situation.
- Ideal Candidates: Arthrosamid is best suited for individuals who suffer from joint pain due to Osteoarthritis, particularly in the knee or hip or other joints. If you’ve tried other treatments with little success, Arthrosamid could be an effective solution.
- Non-Surgical Option: If you want to avoid surgery but still seek long-lasting pain relief, Arthrosamid injections are a great non-invasive alternative.
- Correct diagnosis first:Â at your initial consultation, Dr Akhtar reviews your medical history and uses ultrasound guidance and other diagnostic tests to confirm the severity of your osteoarthritis. Arthrosamid works best for moderate knee osteoarthritis; in advanced osteoarthritis we’ll give you an honest view of whether it’s likely to help and agree a treatment plan that suits you.
KNEE & HIP PAIN
Arthrosamid injections are particularly effective for people suffering from Knee Osteoarthritis and Hip joint pain.
These injections provide lubrication and cushioning to the joint, reducing inflammation and improving mobility.
If you’re dealing with chronic knee pain or hip osteoarthritis, Arthrosamid injections may be just what you need to regain your active lifestyle.
Arthrosamid Knee Injection
Knee Osteoarthritis is one of the most common causes of joint pain. Arthrosamid knee injections provide much-needed relief by helping restore joint function and reducing pain.
This injection is a safe alternative to surgery and helps many people get back to their daily activities with less discomfort.
At our knee clinic in Manchester and Burnley, every Arthrosamid knee injection is delivered under ultrasound guidance for accuracy, helping patients move with less pain and get back to daily life.
Arthrosamid Hip Injection
If you’re struggling with hip joint pain, an Arthrosamid injection might be the right option for you.
These injections help cushion the hip joint and reduce the pain caused by osteoarthritis, reduce stiffness, improving mobility and overall function.
STEP BY STEP
The actual procedure for is simple, quick, and minimally invasive, ensuring minimal disruption to your daily life.
Before the injection, we provide the patient with oral antibiotics to be taken 1-2 hours before the procedure to ensure safety and reduce the risk of infection
The procedure begins with a local anaesthetic, which numbs the area, to ensure you are comfortable.
The Arthrosamid hydrogel is injected directly into the joint, where it helps restore cushioning and reduce pain.
You may experience mild soreness for a short period, but most patients report significant pain relief shortly after the injection.
COMPARE
Non-Invasive vs. Surgery
Unlike joint replacement surgery, Arthrosamid injections are non-invasive and require minimal downtime.
Less Risk
Arthrosamid is a safe alternative to more aggressive treatments. It carries far fewer risks compared to surgery or long-term use of oral medications.
Long-Term Relief
Many patients experience long-lasting relief, making Arthrosamid injections a cost-effective solution in the long run.
Compared with a steroid injection or cortisone injections, which calm inflammation for only a few weeks, and unlike PRP, which is prepared from your own blood, Arthrosamid provides a longer-lasting cushion from a single treatment. For many people it’s an effective non surgical treatment that can delay the point at which a knee surgeon or orthopaedic surgeon might recommend knee arthroscopy or a total knee replacement.
KEY CONSIDERATIONS
Key Considerations When Choosing Arthrosamid Injections
Before deciding if Arthrosamid injections are right for you, consider the following:
If you’re dealing with moderate to severe osteoarthritis in the knee or hip, Arthrosamid may be an ideal treatment option.
If you’ve already tried other treatments, such as Corticosteroid injections/Hyaluronic Acid/PRP without success, you may find relief with Arthrosamid injections.
Since the procedure has a 1-2 week recovery time, you can return to daily activities quickly.
How Much Does Arthrosamid Injection Cost in the UK?
From
£2500
Per Knee Injection
The cost of Arthrosamid injections varies in the UK depending on where you receive treatment. Private clinics generally charge between £2500 and £3000 per injection session.Â
However, this price can fluctuate depending on the location, clinic reputation, and the number of injections required.
Arthrosamid is a private, self-funded treatment, so it suits self pay patients seeking an alternative to surgery. It is also currently being evaluated in NHS clinical trials, reflecting the growing evidence behind it.
If you are considering this treatment, book a consult with us at My MSK Injection Clinic Manchester. The Doctor will perform a thorough examination and suggest whether Arthrosamid Injection is suitable for you. No GP Referral required.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Arthrosamid?
Arthrosamid is a cutting-edge injectable hydrogel that delivers long-lasting, proven pain relief for Knee Osteoarthritis. It integrates with the soft synovial tissue in the knee joint to provide sustained pain relief.
How is Arthrosamid administered?
Arthrosamid is administered via a simple, one-step procedure performed under local anaesthesia by a qualified physician. The injection is guided by imaging to ensure accuracy and effectiveness.
What are the benefits of Arthrosamid?
Arthrosamid offers long-lasting pain relief, improved quality of life, and the potential to delay knee replacement surgery. It is a minimally invasive procedure that provides reproducible pain reduction results.
Is Arthrosamid suitable for everyone?
Arthrosamid is approved for the symptomatic treatment of Osteoarthritis. However, it may not be suitable for individuals with autoimmune disorders. A consultation with our clinician is necessary to determine suitability.
What are the side effects of Arthrosamid?
The most commonly reported side effects are mild to moderate pain and swelling at the injection site. These are usually temporary and settle on their own.
Is there much pain or recovery after an Arthrosamid injection?
Most patients experience only mild discomfort for a few days after treatment. Temporary soreness or swelling at the injection site usually settles on its own, and most people return to daily activities within 1–2 weeks.
Do I need antibiotics for an Arthrosamid injection?
Yes. Because Arthrosamid is a permanent hydrogel implant, a single dose of antibiotics is given 1–2 hours before the injection to minimise the risk of infection.
Does Arthrosamid cure osteoarthritis?
No. Arthrosamid relieves the symptoms of osteoarthritis but does not reverse the underlying structural damage. It cushions the joint and reduces pain rather than rebuilding cartilage.

I went to see Dr Akhtar for a steroid injection in my knee following inflammation. Dr Akhtar was so professional and caring and helped to discover the root cause for my severely inflamed knee.
The injection has helped me greatly and I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Akhtar for any treatments in his clinic.
Fantastic service.

My elderly mum had an appointment 22nd April with Dr Amir Akhtar who gave my mum a guided ultra sound steroid injection in her shoulder. The consultation was empathetic, thorough, informative and has given mum excellent relief after been warned by Dr Amir Akhtar that the sucess rate was very slim and may not last very long due to the severity of her advanced osteoarthritis. However mum is delighted with even a short (2 weeks and counting) reprieve. We would not hesitate to recommend or indeed return to this clinic.

Very helpful doctor who explained the procedure and gave me a realistic view of how successful the procedure would be given my age and severity of my condition. This was prior to the procedure, so I could decline treatment if I wished. He was in no hurry during the procedure and pointed things out to me on the scan.
Overall, I would certainly recommend this clinic and clinician. It was excellent care. I am pleased to say that I am noticing some improvement in my knee following the injection and am now saving to have my other knee treated. I will definitely be returning to this clinic.

We attended the Burnley clinic last month after several years of trying to find help and support from different professionals. From the moment we arrived, my mum felt truly listened to and heard by Dr Amir Akhtar, which made such a difference to her overall experience.
She received ultrasound guided hydrodissection of the Baxter’s nerve, and since the treatment she has reported a really positive improvement. Her pain has reduced significantly, and she feels much better in herself, more comfortable driving and able to go out for walks again, which she hasn’t been able to do for quite some time.
The improvement has been remarkable and we’re very grateful. She has also noticed that she is now able to move her toe more easily, and the pain in her heel at night has reduced, helping her rest more comfortably.

Visited the Burnley clinic a couple of weeks ago with sciatica and had a consultation with Dr Akhtar with regards to a caudal epidural injection. Dr Akhtar explained the procedure and off we went. Can't say it was a pleasant experience but Dr Akhtar was lovely and reassuring and followed up with me after about 12 days.
I definitely feel the injection has worked and I'm hoping it allows me to get some quality of life back.

I had an appointment with Dr. Amir Akhtar to receive an injection for crippling pain in my shoulder. When he saw the results of the Ultrasound scan he realised that my shoulder was so damaged that he didn’t believe the injection would help me, so he would send the scan results to my GP. He did what he could to help me. He was fantastic.

Dr Akhtar does everything in one appointment and at a fraction of the cost. He also listens and takes his time to understand the problem. Very happy to have found mymsk clinic.

Dr Akhtar was recommended to me recently for my injury / joint pain.
I booked my appointment online and got so much more than I expected on the day of my appointment.
The level of detail that things were explained to me in was fantastic but also done in such a way that it wasn’t overwhelming. I’m at the start of a journey to recovery but have so much confidence I am in great hands and off to the best possible start!!
The evening following my appointment I received some emails of; advice, follow up care, recommendations of the best splint to purchase, images taken from my scans and even a copy of my letter that is going to the GP!
What a fantastic service, one would have to wait weeks if not months for this kind of feedback on the NHS and the cost of everything was very reasonable too.
Thank you very much for everything , I really appreciate your time and approach towards my issue.

I visited Dr Akhtar as I have been struggling with neck & arm pain for a while now and have been waiting on an NHS appointment to see a musculoskeletal specialist. With the nhs waiting list so long I got my GP to write me a referral letter out so that I could have it looked at privately and as soon as possible. I found MSK clinic online and gave a call one evening to be booked in at 8am the following morning. Dr Akhtar was amazing, he thoroughly examined me and explained everything to me in fine detail ensuring I was understanding the diagnosis. He has also advised and recommended aftercare through an osteopath and advised me if I need any help or have any questions to get back in touch. I can't recommend him highly enough.

I recently visited My MSK for an assessment and cortisone injections in my spine after a car crash left me with severe sciatic pain, and I honestly cannot praise this clinic enough. From the moment I walked in, I felt reassured. The clinic itself is beautiful, calm, and welcoming — exactly what you need when you’re anxious and in pain.
Dr Akhtar was everything you could hope for in a specialist: friendly, incredibly knowledgeable, and, most importantly, truly listened. He took the time to understand my pain and concerns, and for the first time since the accident, I genuinely felt hopeful. I’m only 48 hours post-injection, but already the difference in my outlook is huge.
A special thank you goes to Safi, who has been nothing short of exceptional. Safi has handled my endless emails with patience, kindness, and professionalism, and their support has made this whole process so much easier. They genuinely deserve recognition for outstanding customer care.
I was originally going to wait seven days before leaving a review, but honestly, this clinic has already proven itself. I would return here time and time again without hesitation, and I would recommend My MSK to absolutely anyone in need of expert, compassionate care.
Thank you to Dr Akhtar, Safi, and the entire team for giving me hope again. An effortless 5 stars. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

He took the time to understand my pain and concerns, and for the first time since the accident, I genuinely felt hopeful. I’m only 48 hours post-injection, but already the difference in my outlook is huge.
A special thank you goes to Safi, who has been nothing short of exceptional. Safi has handled my endless emails with patience, kindness, and professionalism, and their support has made this whole process so much easier. They genuinely deserve recognition for outstanding customer care.
I was originally going to wait seven days before leaving a review, but honestly, this clinic has already proven itself. I would return here time and time again without hesitation, and I would recommend My MSK to absolutely anyone in need of expert, compassionate care.
Thank you to Dr Akhtar, Safi, and the entire team for giving me hope again. An effortless 5 stars. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Dr Akhtar offers excellent prolotherapy injections for lax ligaments. He’s very thorough and detailed with the injections and he covers each area comprehensively. He takes the time to understand the problem and explains everything fully. I’m very happy to have him treating me.

I had my appointment with Dr Akhtar, who was receptive, understanding and knowledgeable throughout the session. The facility itself was easily found, clean and professional. The equipment within seemed fit for purpose and up to date with modern standards. There was an offer of further treatment, though no pressure was applied after I refused.

Amazing service and treatment from My MSK. Was struggling with ankle issues and getting through the NHS was impossible and so turned to Dr Akhtar.
Got an appointment really quickly and the consultation was in depth with a scan showing me the exact problem. Treatment options were given to me with associated costs along with exercises to support in the interim.
Dr Akhtar is really helpful and knowledgeable and I can’t thank him enough for his support which included a direct referral to hospital for other support.

Dr. Akhtar is a specialist when it comes to back issues. I suffered from lower back nerve pain for years, and his expertise made a significant difference in my recovery. He took the time to diagnose my condition accurately and recommended injections that provided immense relief. His approach is professional, compassionate, and highly effective. He explains everything clearly, ensuring patients feel comfortable and informed. The procedure was smooth, and the results were outstanding. I highly recommend him to anyone struggling with back-related problems.

I took my grandma to see Dr Akhtar for ongoing shoulder pain. We couldn't have asked for a more thorough appointment. He took so much care with examinations and explained everything properly. He talked about the risks and benefits of the procedure and ensured any questions were answered. It turned out my grandma has more going on than we thought so he even wrote to her own GP asking for further investigations. Overall would definitely recommend Dr Akhtar very lovely and professional, reasonably priced and did not rush at all.

From the very beginning, Dr. Akhtar showed exceptional professionalism, honesty and genuine care, taking the time to explain the procedure in detail and addressing all my concerns.
He explained any symptoms that may occur post injection and the time for it to become effective.
Thank you doctor!

I had been experiencing ever worsening hip pain for the last two to three months. As a climber, mountaineer and walker my three to seven hour walks had shrunk to one to one and a half hours before the onset of major hip pain. The physio I was attending gave me a 'heads up' on hyaluronic acid injections and the benefits that pro footballers were receiving. I saw Dr Amir at very short notice, a week before the trip. Dr Amir was extremely honest in pointing out, somewhat disappointingly, that under normal circumstances it took three weeks+ to get the real benefits. He gave me a combination of Cortisone and hyaluronic acid into my hip to help speed up the pain relief. I am back from Chile having walked in the Patagonian mountains for six to seven hours on two occasions, 95% pain free. I can unequivocally recommend Dr Amir, I am about to have further treatment on my right hand, and my wife who also has hip challenges has just made an appointment to see him.

48 hours before I was due to run the London Marathon my feet were in agony and I was seriously doubting that I would be able to complete it. After seeing Dr Akhtar he gave me perfect treatment and on the day I was pain free and able to run the marathon and even get a PB.
He was very informative about what he was going to do and what was causing the issue.
He was very friendly and I will 100% be recommending his services to anyone that needs help.

Following a significant spinal and pelvic injury I have spent the last 20 years under the 'care' of many so-called experts. Some of these have been well meaning, though incompetent, and others nothing more than snake oil practicioners so by now I know who is genuine. I limped into the consultation room believing that I needed a PRP Injection in my Sacroliac Joint. After a thorough assessment and discussion with Dr Akhtar it was agreed that a Caudal Epidural was more appropriate for my condition. This was absolutely the correct diagnosis and I attribute that to his medical knowledge and experience but more so the interest and care he takes to understand assess the condition. After 1 hour and 1 treatment my pain was significantly reduced and has remained so. My initial injury was life changing and it requires life long maintenance. When you are in a position such as mine you need the help of genuine experts and these are incredibly hard to find. I am incredibly fortunate to have found Dr Akhtar and I am recommending his services to my friends and family.

Felt reassured by my assessment, advice and treatment. Ultra sound guided steroid injection carried out at the first appointment and already I’m feeling benefits after months of shoulder pain. I work in the nhs and due to waiting lists for this treatment I had no option but to seek private treatment but I’m so glad so did. The doctor even identified a potential vascular issue that my gp has escaped to notice, which he kindly said he would write to my Gp regarding these concerns. Fantastic service- I would definitely recommend .

Had a recent consultant and treatment for a longstanding right knee injury from weight training and regular half marathon runs. Conservative measures had not help so made the long trek from the midlands to seek the help from Dr Akhtar. His reviews are a true testaments to the care received. Very knowledgeable and relaxed and helpful demeanour from the doctor. Had cortisone injection of the knee joint. For someone with a fear of needles, the doctor put me at ease and did not feel a thing! So far I can feel the improvements and made fully aware of possible further maintenance and exercises needed. Would not hesitate to go back to this clinic, a true hidden gem up north!

Brilliant service at MyMSK always, I have been going here for 2 years now for help with my shoulders ( I have calcification in my upper bicep tendon ) I always receive a thorough ultra sound to check the areas incase of any new injuries formed. the treatment I receive is a cortisone injection into each bursa which completely kills the pain in my whole shoulder area right and left as both are bad. This allows me to exercise again and sleep better. Amir is a really nice person also, makes you feel comfortable from the start and it generally feels like he really cares about his patients. I will continue to use MyMSK forever.

Made a visit to My MSK and saw Dr Aktar - I was struggling with severe sciatica pain and wanted to pay for an injection to relieve the pain.
However during the consultation Dr Aktar explain that the injection might not be the best course of action, he gave me some excellent advice and explained in detail what was wrong and how that was causing the painful symptoms.
I left feeling much more informed about my situation and after following his instructions my symptoms have improved massively.
I really appreciated the good advice and felt it was far more beneficial than other places who would have just taken my money for the injection and not really considered the actual root cause.

The clinic was in a clean, modern and well-equipped building. We were greeted by a pleasant and friendly receptionist and did not have to wait long to see the doctor. Dr Akhtar was pleasant and professional and set my mum (his patient) at ease. He injected her joint with obvious skill and expertise and was confident in giving advice on the diagnosis and what to expect. It was a pleasure to attend the appointment.
