Figure Legend:
The squeeze film lubrication theory, shown as an automobile tire in a static state (A) and in motion (B) on a road topped with a thin film of water (blue). The motion creates a “wedge,” or slope, and generates pressure in the fluid film when the fluid passes through the wedge. This effect can be applied to how hyaluronic acid acts within the fascia.
