Brief Answer:
No interaction between anesthesia and hyaluronic acid Injections.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

Having hyaluronic acid Injections or Euflexxa in knee joint doesn't interact with anesthesia or doesn't have any contraindications if you are supposed to have surgery soon.
You are safe to undergo surgery on 9/3/2019 without having absolutely no interaction between anesthesia and hyaluronic acid injections.
There are no evidence for possible interactions between anesthetic substances and hyaluronic acid Injections.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
