What are Corticosteroid Injections?
Corticosteroid injections are a common treatment option for a variety of inflammatory conditions and musculoskeletal disorders. These injections deliver a potent anti-inflammatory medication directly into the affected area, reducing pain and swelling and promoting healing.
Is a Corticosteroid Injection right for you?
Corticosteroid injections may be recommended for:
Arthritis: Corticosteroid injections can provide relief from the pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
Tendonitis: Such as tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, and Achilles tendonitis.
Bursitis: Corticosteroid injections may be used to alleviate pain and swelling in the bursae, small fluid-filled sacs that cushion the joints.
Joint Injuries: Corticosteroid injections may be recommended to reduce inflammation and pain following acute injuries such as sprains or strains as well as conditions such as frozen shoulder or adhesive capsulitis
Nerve Pain: Corticosteroid injections can help alleviate pain associated with conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome by reducing inflammation around affected nerves.
