A number of our doctors can offer steroid joint injections, these are given to help reduce pain and swelling, and to help joints move more freely. Many people have steroid injections into their shoulders, knees, elbows or hands, or joints that are affected by arthritis this then allows you to do physio exercises more effectively which will help with long term condition improvement. Small amounts of steroid can also help manage conditions such as tennis elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome and trigger fingers.
