Intra-articular injection for joint arthritis ankle/ knee/ shoulder/ tendon
Intra-articular injection gives medication directly into a joint. It relieves pain and inflammation in individuals with osteoarthritis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, acute monarticular gout, pseudogout, and rheumatoid arthritis. Tendon injection gives medication into the area surrounding a tendon. It treats tendonitis and tendinosis by decreasing inflammation, or helps kick start healing of a tendon.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injection is a new treatment for some orthopedic conditions like tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, impingement syndrome of the shoulder, plantar fasciitis, tendinosis, and any chronic tendinopathy or ligament injury. Concentrated platelets found in the PRP contain huge reservoirs of bioactive proteins, including growth factors which stimulate the body’s natural healing process.
