Highly effective joint injections

Joint injections are a highly effective treatment option for managing pain and inflammation in the joints, particularly for conditions such as arthritis, tendinitis, and bursitis.

These injections typically involve the use of corticosteroids. The procedure is minimally invasive, with the medication being injected directly into the affected joint to provide targeted relief. Joint injections can help reduce inflammation, improve mobility, and alleviate pain, offering both short- and long-term benefits.

They are often recommended when other treatments, such as medication or physical therapy, have not provided sufficient relief. At our private GP clinic, we ensure that the procedure is performed with precision and care, tailored to your individual needs, and followed up with appropriate aftercare to maximise the treatment’s effectiveness.

In order to arrange a steroid injection, you will need an initial consultation with our specialist GPs. They will then advise on the best treatment plan.
