    2025 Steroid injection FAQ for website

    What is ultrasound and why is it used with Cortisone Steroid Injection therapy?

     

    Ultrasound is an imaging technique that employs high-frequency waves to visualise subcutaneous body structures, including muscles, tendons, joints, vessels, and internal organs for potential pathology or lesions. When used in conjunction with cortisone injection therapy, ultrasound enhances the accuracy of the injection without serving as a diagnostic tool during the procedure.

    Research indicates that ultrasound-guided injections provide superior pain relief, longer-lasting effects, and improved joint functioning compared to blind injections. Additionally, there is evidence supporting the reduction of needle-related trauma or misplacement, thereby enhancing the safety of the injection.

     

    Conditions Treated with Cortisone Steroid Injection:

    Cortisone Injections are utilised by healthcare providers to manage conditions causing pain and inflammation, such as autoimmune disorders, arthritis, tendinitis, tendinopathy, bursitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, trigger finger, and trigger thumb.

     

    Procedure Overview:

    Cortisone Injections are administered directly into the affected area or joint. In some instances, the injection may be introduced into a large muscle to facilitate bloodstream absorption. For certain injections, a local anesthetic is incorporated to provide immediate pain relief. Common injection sites include joints, tendons, and bursae.

     

    Benefits of Cortisone Steroid Injection:

    Cortisone shots offer a safe and effective means to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and safeguard joints from potential damage resulting from chronic inflammation. While arthritis may not have a cure, anti-inflammatory treatments like cortisone shots effectively manage symptoms.

     

    Side Effects of Cortisone Steroid Injection:

    Common side effects include pain at the injection site, temporary swelling increase, bruising, and a transient rise in blood sugar levels, especially notable for individuals with diabetes. Rare but severe side effects may include infections, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, fluid retention, and increased swelling.

     

    Recovery and Duration:

    The timeline for experiencing relief from cortisone steroid injection varies from person to person, with effects possibly taking up to a week. If symptoms persist beyond 10 days, a consultation with the healthcare provider is recommended. The frequency of cortisone injections depends on the nature of the condition, with individuals recovering from temporary injuries potentially needing only one injection. Chronic conditions may require multiple injections, with a recommended waiting period of at least three months between having them. The effectiveness of a cortisone steroid injection typically lasts from a few weeks to a few months, addressing inflammation during the healing process or managing chronic symptoms accordingly.
