Understanding Joint Injections

Joint injections deliver powerful anti-inflammatory medication directly to affected joints, providing targeted relief for various conditions including:

  • Osteoarthritis
  • Sports-related injuries
  • Bursitis and tendinitis

How Joint Injections Work

Joint injections typically combine a local anesthetic for immediate pain relief with a corticosteroid to reduce inflammation. This dual-action approach provides both immediate and long-lasting relief while promoting healing.
