Magnesium sulfate alleviates postoperative pain
We explored the impact of magnesium sulfate on managing pain following total knee arthroplasty. In a randomized, double-blind trial with 90 patients, half received a blend of analgesics that included magnesium sulfate, while the other half did not.
Following surgery, the results showed that magnesium sulfate helped prolong pain relief and reduced the need for opioids. Patients receiving it experienced less postoperative pain and moved towards recovery more effectively.
Overall, adding magnesium sulfate appears beneficial for postoperative knee pain management.

Magnesium aids postoperative pain relief
We explored the role of magnesium in reducing knee pain following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). In a study involving 119 adults, participants received either an adductor canal block with magnesium and bupivacaine or just bupivacaine.
Those who received magnesium reported significantly lower pain scores and reduced opioid usage in the days after surgery, without experiencing an uptick in nausea or dissatisfaction. This suggests that adding magnesium to local anesthesia could enhance pain management for TKA patients, promoting a smoother recovery.

Magnesium reduces postoperative knee pain
We evaluated the impact of magnesium sulphate on pain levels for 44 patients undergoing staged bilateral total knee arthroplasty.
In this study, the magnesium group received magnesium sulphate while the control group received isotonic saline during their surgeries.
Our findings showed that those who received magnesium experienced significantly lower pain scores compared to the control group, both after their first and second surgeries.
Importantly, magnesium also helped reduce the need for additional pain relief medications in the days following surgery.

Reduced knee pain

Very cool! Calcium and magnesium work well together. I discovered that taking these in the evening allows for better absorption. The jar is large, and the tablets are sizeable. I've noticed significant relief; my knee pain has decreased, and osteochondrosis is less concerning. I prefer to take them in a course.

We explored how calcium phosphate (CaP) injections impact knee pain, particularly in patients suffering from osteoarthritis-related bone marrow lesions (OA-BML). In this study, we compared two groups of patients: those who received knee arthroscopy combined with CaP injections and those who had knee arthroscopy for different knee issues.
Our observations showed that patients receiving the CaP injections experienced less frequent conversions to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) when compared to the other group. Notably, within the CaP group, we noticed a significant improvement in their knee injury and functional outcome scores before and after the procedure. However, patients who only underwent knee arthroscopy did not show the same level of improvement.
Overall, we found that adding CaP injections during knee surgery for OA-BML significantly enhanced functional outcomes over traditional surgery alone. This study underscores the potential benefits of CaP treatments in managing knee pain and improving quality of life for those suffering from knee OA.

We evaluated how effective magnesium, especially when combined with bupivacaine, is for managing knee pain after arthroscopy. Our study looked at data from 78 randomized trials involving 4,425 participants.
It turns out that magnesium with bupivacaine is the top performer in easing pain right after surgery and at the 24-hour mark, outperforming other analgesics like morphine.
However, magnesium alone didn’t show significant pain relief. We found that using this combination does not lead to more side effects, making it a safe choice for recovery.

This form of calcium did not suit me; my knee pain increased. However, the same brand of Calcium Citrate worked well for me. If my review was helpful, please give it a thumbs up.

Magnesium aids knee surgery recovery
We investigated how magnesium sulfate influences recovery after knee surgery. In our study, 148 elderly patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty were divided into two groups: one received magnesium sulfate, while the other received a saline solution.
This double-blind setup allowed us to see if magnesium sulfate could enhance recovery quality after surgery. Our findings indicate that magnesium sulfate does help reduce early postoperative pain and improves overall recovery in these patients.
Overall, magnesium sulfate appears beneficial in managing pain during the recovery process.

We looked into how magnesium can help ease knee pain after total knee arthroplasty. In a study of 80 patients, those who received an injection of magnesium sulfate and ropivacaine experienced significantly less pain and needed less morphine compared to those who got a saline injection. This approach not only reduced morphine use in the first 48 hours but also allowed patients to regain movement quicker. Overall, our findings suggest that magnesium may be a beneficial part of pain management in knee surgery.

We examined the impact of magnesium sulfate paired with levobupivacaine on pain relief after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). In our study, 60 patients were divided into two groups: one received the magnesium cocktail, while the other only got levobupivacaine. Our findings revealed that the magnesium group experienced prolonged pain relief, reduced reliance on additional pain medication, and effective management of early postoperative pain. Overall, this suggests that magnesium sulfate could be a valuable addition to pain management protocols following knee surgery.

Magnesium improves knee pain management
We investigated the use of magnesium combined with levobupivacaine in patients undergoing ACL reconstruction. In this study, 107 patients were divided into two groups: one receiving just levobupivacaine and the other receiving levobupivacaine with magnesium.
Our findings showed that adding magnesium improved pain relief and satisfaction, but it also delayed when patients could first move after surgery. Overall, magnesium seems to offer better quality pain control, while also reducing the need for additional pain relief medications.

We explored the role of calcium gluconate as an activator alongside platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections for patients dealing with early knee osteoarthritis. In this study, participants were split into two groups: one received PRP alone, while the other got PRP mixed with calcium gluconate.
Both groups were evaluated over six months for pain relief and overall satisfaction. Interestingly, despite a noticeable decrease in pain and improvement in overall function in both groups, we found no significant differences when comparing the effectiveness of the two treatments.
This led us to conclude that adding calcium gluconate might not provide any extra benefit to PRP injections in managing knee pain for early-stage osteoarthritis, which is quite important for patients considering their treatment options.
