Summary

This study tests whether a lower dose of steroid injected into the knee works as well as the standard dose for pain and function in obese people with knee arthritis. Forty participants will receive either a low or standard dose and report their pain and knee function over time. The goal is to see if a lower dose can provide similar relief with potentially fewer side effects.
