Injections

Steroid injections work by suppressing the immune system and reducing the production of inflammatory substances. Hyaluronan injections involve injecting a gel-like substance made from hyaluronic acid to cushion the joint, reducing friction and pain.

Epidural spinal injections are a type of injection that delivers medication directly into the space surrounding the spinal cord in the lower back. The injection can help to reduce inflammation and provide pain relief.

Facet joint injections are commonly used to treat conditions such as spinal arthritis, degenerative disc disease, and spinal stenosis. The injections can provide temporary pain relief and help patients to participate in physical therapy and other activities that can improve their overall condition.

Therapeutic nerve blocks are commonly used to treat conditions such as chronic headaches, neck pain, back pain, and joint pain. The injections can provide temporary pain relief and help patients to participate in physical therapy and other activities that can improve their overall condition.

Trigger points are areas of tight muscle fibers that can cause pain and discomfort. The injection involves injecting a local anesthetic and/or a corticosteroid medication directly into the trigger point. This medication can help to reduce inflammation and relieve pain.

MR/CT arthrogram injections are a type of injection used to diagnose and treat joint pain and other joint-related issues. The injection involves injecting a contrast agent, which contains a dye that can be seen on medical imaging tests, directly into the joint. This contrast agent helps to provide clear images of the joint and its surrounding structures during a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) scan.
