Video Summary

In the video, the speaker and panelists discuss various topics related to injections for knee pain. They mention the use of hyaluronic acid (HA) injections and the debate over whether to administer one shot or a series of three shots. The panelists share different opinions, with some recommending one shot and others preferring three shots for maximum pain relief. They also discuss the distinction between patients who have inflammatory pain versus load pain, and how this may influence treatment options. The panelists mention the use of stem cells and adipose tissue injections, clarifying that while patients often ask for stem cell injections, there are currently no stem cell products available for use in the United States. The panelists also address billing procedures for injections, suggesting that insurance can be billed for HA injections while PRP injections may require self-pay.
