Urgentology Care offers Joint injection therapy, which is the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders by injecting medication and anesthetics directly into the joint space. It has been a common and effective treatment for over 60 years. If you have had chronic joint pain, joint injection therapy may be a good treatment option.
Some of the most common injection sites include:
- Knees
- Elbows
- Wrists
- Shoulders
- Feet
Urgentology Care offers joint injection therapy on a walk-in basis. You can contact us online to arrange a same-day appointment or just drop by to have your joint pain treated today!
Why Joint Injection Therapy?
When treating joint pain, you always want to explore the least invasive treatment options first. Nonsurgical treatments are often successful at achieving the results desired. Joint injections can be performed in only a few minutes, and the results typically last for several months. After your injection, there will likely be tenderness and inflammation around the injection site. This should go away within 48 hours, at which point you should start feeling the pain-relieving effects of the treatment.
Benefits of joint injection therapy include:
- Suppressing inflammation
- Reducing pain
- Increasing joint function
- Reducing time to recovery
- Long-term pain relief
- Nonsurgical treatment for chronic pain
Joint injection therapy is usually recommended for patients who have not had success with medication or physical therapy. Additionally, joint injections can allow patients who experienced too much pain to undergo physical therapy finally participate in this long-term recovery program.
