Hi Paul,
In severe cases where surgery may be needed, doctors will sometimes prescribe an injectable medication called hyaluronan (Synvisc, Orthovisc). It is typically administered as a series of three injections into the knee joint, each injection spaced about one week apart and may help alleviate symptoms for about 6 months. What this does is delay the need for surgery. It is only a temporary fix though and other treatments such as surgery may be needed to correct the problem.
I hope this helps!

Paul,
Joints that are not lubricated well by synovial fluid can cause rubbing and pain. Here are a few things you can try at home to help increase synovial fluid around the joints.
Take a daily multivitamin to ensure that your nutritional needs are being met. Proper nutrition is important for creating and replacing synovial fluid.
Drink an adequate amount of water throughout the day to aid in production of synovial fluid.
Eat protein. Protein is necessary since synovial fluid is composed with amino acids found in proteins.
Take an omega-3 fatty acid supplement or eat more foods that contain omega-3 fatty acids such as salmon, sardines, walnuts and canola oil.
Discuss anti-inflammatory medication and corticosteroid treatment with your physician. Anti-inflammatory drugs and corticosteroids can reduce inflammation in the hip joint to provide pain relief.

Please make sure that you have consulted with your doctor and that you follow his/her treatment options.
Hope this helps,
