Cortisone Injection for Different Body Areas Pain Treatment
We provide targeted cortisone injection treatment for pain affecting different parts of the body. Depending on the cause and location of your symptoms, we may treat:
Types of Injections We Use for Pain Treatment
We offer targeted injection treatments based on the source, location, and severity of your pain. Depending on your condition, treatment include:
Bursa injections
Bursa injections deliver anti-inflammatory medication into an irritated bursa, a small fluid-filled sac that cushions the joints. They can help reduce pain and swelling
Joint injections
Joint injections place medication directly into a painful or inflamed joint. They may reduce inflammation and improve mobility.
Nerve blocks
Nerve blocks deliver medication around a specific nerve to reduce pain signals. They may be used to relieve pain, identify its source, or help calm an irritated nerve.
Trigger points
Trigger point injections treat tight, painful knots within the muscles. The injection helps relax the muscle, reduce tenderness, and improve movement.
Non-Steroid Injections:
Trigger Point Injections
For trigger point injections, cortisone is usually not necessary because the problem is a tight, irritated muscle rather than joint inflammation. We use a small amount of local anesthetic to help the muscle relax, interrupt the pain cycle, and restore normal blood flow. This treatment is used for painful muscle knots that can be felt beneath the skin.
