Our clinic specialises in the assessment and treatment of musculoskeletal conditions, which can cause pain and limit activities of daily living. We provide joint injection for a variety of conditions including carpal tunnel syndrome, frozen shoulder, tennis/golfers elbow, wrist tendonitis, trigger finger, small joint arthritis, plantar fasciitis, and bursitis of the hip.
Joint pain is a very common condition and is usually the result of injury, arthritis or an inflammatory condition. At Swell Health Clinic we can offer steroid joint injections, which can effectively reduce inflammation and therefore reduce your pain allowing you to continue with your activities of daily living with minimal symptoms.
Patients will attend an initial consultation, during which we will take a full, medical history, do a full examination, we will also determine whether a joint injection is suitable and decide if an x-ray or other imaging is required first.
It is important to remember that steroid joint injections may not be suitable for all patients.
Our prices are for one injection in one single joint. It should be noted that a steroid injection will not cure your condition and may only provide temporary relief.
At Swell Health Clinic we provide steroid injection therapy for a variety of conditions including carpal tunnel syndrome, frozen shoulder, tennis/golfers elbow, wrist tendonitis, trigger finger, small joint arthritis, plantar fasciitis, and bursitis of the hip.
Steroid joint injections reduce inflammation and therefore pain. Usually only one injection is required but on occasion you may require more.
Most adults with no history of allergy to steroid containing products or local anaesthetic can have the steroid injection.
The procedure will be undertaken with an aseptic, non touch technique. However, as with any procedure there is a risk of infection, pain, bleeding and weakening integrity of surrounding soft tissue. It is also important to note that not all patients will benefit from this procedure.
At Swell Health Clinic we will provide clear aftercare advice to all patients to ensure they get maximum benefit from the injection.
