Feedback on Pentosan + Boswellia + Diclofenac gel stack for joint recovery

I’ve been trying a little stack to see if it helps with the achy knees I get after long shifts. I’m using Pentosan Polysulfate Sodium at 200mg once a week subcutaneously – I reconstitute a 200mg vial with 2ml bacteriostatic water so it’s 100mg/ml and draw 2ml. On top of that I take Boswellia serrata extract standardised to 10% AKBA, 150mg twice daily with meals.

For flare‑ups after a heavy lifting day I slap on Diclofenac 1% gel, about 4g to the sore area, three times that day. Ngl I’ve noticed less stiffness in the mornings and the swelling seems to go down quicker, but I’m also doing more stretching and could be placebo. I’m curious if anyone’s run something similar, especially with Pentosan dosing – does weekly SC make sense or should I split it? Any thoughts on timing the Boswellia around the injection or whether the gel might interfere with absorption?
