1. NRS pain on walking ≥4 and ≤ 9 in index ankle

Exclusion Criteria

1. History of hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients in the hyaluronan or corticosteroids

2. Infection or skin disease in the area of the injection site or ankle joint

3. NRS pain on walking > 3 in the contralateral ankle

4. NRS pain on walking > 3 in the ipsilateral knee or hip

5. Subject received an injection of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) and/or steroid in either ankle within 6 months of signing the informed consent form (ICF). A subject will be excluded if they are planning to receive an HA or steroid injection (other than the study injection) in either ankle during the course of this study.

6. Known inflammatory or autoimmune disorders (including rheumatoid arthritis, gout), or other pre-existing medical conditions that, in the opinion of the investigator, could impact treatment of the index ankle or affect the ability of the subject to accurately complete the study questionnaires and comply with the study requirements.

7. Subject is taking medications at the time of signing the ICF which could interfere with the treatment procedure, healing and/or assessments. This includes but is not limited to oral or injectable anticoagulant treatments, anti-aggregant platelet treatment, chronic opioid analgesics. Low dose aspirin used for cardiovascular protection is allowed if a stable regimen is maintained for the duration of the study.

10. Chronic use of narcotics or cannabis.

11. Ligament instability or tear in index ankle.

12. Chronic impingement in the index ankle requiring surgical treatment

13. Diagnosis of fibromyalgia

14. Diagnosis of osteonecrosis in index ankle
