Joint Injections

To help ease pain and increase movement.

Description

Our expert Doctors offer injections for inflamed, swollen joints in a quick procedure to help ease chronic joint pain and stiffness When your joints are swollen and tender, we often put a needle into your joints to draw out fluid and inject steroid into them. The steroid reduces the swelling and pain you have, so you can use your joint again.

Joint injections are used for people with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and many other conditions. Injecting your joint with a steroid fluid or “cortisone” with the aim reduce pain and inflammation that you may be experiencing. Sometimes we inject into the tissues around joints as well because this can help with conditions such as tennis elbow.

Please note that not everyone will have a lasting response following the injection. However, many patients experience significant decreased swelling, decreased pain, increased range of motion and improved function.

A thorough assessment and explanation of the procedure will be undertaken before proceeding. Dr Khalid has many years of experience in performing these injections, click on the link for more information about the procedure.
