Triamcinolone "Works great. Took two weeks to kick in. Used for osteoarthritis, right knee. Not sure how long it will last, but it’s been almost two months. Definitely will get the injection again when it wears off. No side effects."

Triamcinolone "It is early for me but starts slower than Depo Medrol. Depo fixed my knee twice - once for a few years and then indefinitely. It had fixed my shoulder - each time for a few years. May have been used in foot and finger again with indefinite length of fix. Kenalog now used in other shoulder, long term TBD."

"I received an injection into my finger knuckle the first time I experienced debilitating osteoarthritis. Within 24 hours, the swelling was almost completely reduced, and my use of hands was back to normal for about 6 months. I am hoping a second treatment will be just as helpful. Also, I am finding the same problems in my other hand now."
