Tendon and joint injections are minimally invasive methods that help relieve pain and improve mobility in people with osteoarthritis and arthritis. The doctor will examine and assess the damage before deciding on treatment.
Applications
- Osteoarthritis of the knee, hip, shoulder and small joints.
- Tendinitis, periarticular tendinitis and chronic pain syndromes.
- Pain relief, improved range of motion and quality of daily life.
When should joint injection be considered?
The method is usually considered when joint pain is prolonged, movement is restricted, and measures such as rest, physical therapy and oral medication have not been sufficiently effective. Depending on the condition, the doctor may prescribe corticosteroid injection, hyaluronic acid or other preparations.
Important notes
- Joint injection must be performed at a medical facility that ensures sterility.
- It should not be done too often; the doctor’s instructions must be followed.
- People with underlying conditions such as diabetes or infection need careful assessment.
