Does synovial fluid help strengthen the joints?
No, the synovial fluid itself does not help to strengthen the joints - only the ligaments do. The ligaments serve to prevent excessive movement in a certain direction. For example, if you inspect your elbow, you will find that you are unable to either adduct/abduct at the elbow (when having your palm facing forward, and elbow bent at 90 degrees, you will be able to physically move your elbow in/out. moving your hand from side to side is the rotation of your humerus, not your elbow). This is due to the presence of the collateral ligaments which prevent excessive side-to-side movement.Synovial fluid serves to lubricate the joint to ensure smooth movements, and the fluid is continually secreted by the synovial membrane into the joint. People who have less synovial fluid in the joint will find that it may be painful to move the joint, resulting in either arthritis or other disorders.
