Knee Steroid Injections
A wide range of painful knee conditions can be treated with steroid injections, Hyaluronic acid injections or PRP injections.
The knee is one of the large weight-bearing joints in the body so can be prone to things like arthritis and overuse. Previous injuries to your knees may predispose you to arthritis. Poor biomechanics may predispose you to overuse injuries in the knee.
Steroid Injections are a common treatment for pain associated with inflammation in knee joints. It involves using an ultrasound scanner to identify the best location to inject the steroid to reduce inflammation. It is most commonly used in the treatment of knee arthritis, patellofemoral pain and Illiotibial band friction syndrome.
Hyaluronic acid and PRP injections are most commonly used in the treatment of knee arthritis. Below are some of the common conditions we treat.
