Need input on best way to add a "see also" section

Hi,
So I've always had a "See also" section at the bottom of every topic in online help. I need to do that in my newest project, but i'm thinking there is a better say to add it other than having to add it to each topic as I have always done in the past.
Adding it to the Master Page doesn't work because if i add the area in the Master, I can't see it in the Topics so that i can add content to that area (i.e., hyperlinks to related topics in the projects). The powers here do not want me to use the Side Menu format... and i really need this section to be more flexible - so that i can add my own content each time.
I was thinking of adding a proxy to the master that would allow me to set up the format for the "also see" section... that will then allow me to add content for each topic. However, I've not worked with proxies much so I'm not sure if this is the best method. Also, I'm not sure what kind of proxy to add for this small section at the bottom of every topic.
I would appreciate some input and ideas regarding this process.
