Collagen, a primary component of connective tissues, has emerged as a therapeutic agent for these conditions. This article explores the applications of collagen in joint diseases, comparing oral and intra-articular administration, evaluating optimal dosages, assessing single versus long-term therapies, discussing side effects, and examining the benefits of hydrolyzed versus non-hydrolyzed collagen. Additionally, explore various sources of collagen and their respective advantages for patient care.
