Injection Therapy Applications
Joint Pain
Injection therapy can target specific conditions or areas. For example, cortisone injections help manage inflammation and pain in affected joints.
Reduce Inflammation
Cortisone injections provide targeted relief for chronic pain and inflammatory conditions, such as joint swelling, bursitis, and more.
Cortisone injections deliver medication directly to the affected area, reducing inflammation, alleviating discomfort, and improving overall quality of life.
Osteoarthritis
Hyaluronic acid injections act as a fluid thickener to improve joint fluid. By improving the quality of joint fluid, patients can expect to have less pain in their daily lives.
