Is injecting sugar water (dextrose prolotherapy) the miracle cure for chronic pain you've been hoping for? Before you consider this treatment for your nagging knee pain, shoulder pain, or other musculoskeletal issues, you need to see what the latest evidence reveals. In this deep dive, we unpack a major systematic review from the VA Evidence Synthesis Program that exposes the shocking truth about dextrose prolotherapy's effectiveness and, more importantly, its safety. We'll explore why this popular injection might be a mistake for shoulder pain and offer little benefit for knee osteoarthritis, and discuss the specific conditions like tennis elbow where it might actually help. Don't let chronic pain lead you to an uncertain treatment—get the facts from the study and understand the real risks and benefits of prolotherapy.
