No injections, I can only say what worked for me.
Go to Sams Club (Costco) and pick up a bottle of Triple Strength Osteo BiFlex tabs, 180 count (NOT the Generic!!).
Take 2 a day. At the end of the bottle, you will know if it has helped. If not, you are only out the cost of the bottle, approx $24. It it does help, get another bottle and take one a day.
For me it did better than the prescription Vioxx and Celebrex I tried.
