Steroid Injections

What are steroid injections?

Steroid injections involve delivering corticosteroids, powerful anti-inflammatory medications, directly into inflamed or painful areas of the body, such as joints, muscles, or tendons. This method allows for targeted relief of symptoms.

Benefits of steroid injections: 

Steroid injections can provide quick and effective relief from pain and inflammation associated with various conditions, including arthritis, bursitis, tendonitis, and other musculoskeletal issues. They can improve mobility, reduce swelling, and enhance overall quality of life by alleviating discomfort.

How steroid injections helps your body: 

Steroid injections work by reducing inflammation and suppressing the immune response in the targeted area. This helps decrease pain and swelling, allowing for improved movement and function. The localized delivery ensures that the medication acts directly where it's needed most, providing faster and more effective relief compared to oral medications. Steroid injections can be part of a comprehensive treatment plan, helping patients manage their symptoms and return to their daily activities with less pain. Steroid injections are only used for temporary pain relief and not a long term fix. Long term use of steroid injections can cause issues and it is important to discuss these with your medical provider.
