About Injections
For shoulder arthritis, we offer several injections to manage pain and inflammation effectively:
- Corticosteroid: These injections contain potent anti-inflammatory medications like cortisone. Administered directly into the shoulder joint, they can reduce inflammation and relieve arthritis-related pain.
- Hyaluronic Acid: These injections improve lubrication and cushioning within the joint, reducing friction and alleviating shoulder pain caused by arthritis.
- Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP): PRP injections promote tissue healing and regeneration. Platelets are concentrated from the patient’s blood and injected into the shoulder joint to potentially reduce pain and improve joint function.
- Stem Cell Injections: Stem cell therapy involves injecting stem cells into the affected joint to facilitate tissue repair and reduce inflammation. While ongoing research shows promise, it is not a guaranteed treatment for shoulder arthritis.
It is important to note that these injections provide relief from symptoms but may not offer a permanent cure for shoulder arthritis. The effectiveness of each injection type varies from person to person. Before considering any injection or treatment, it is crucial to consult with a qualified healthcare professional who can evaluate your condition and recommend the most suitable approach for your specific case. In some cases, a combination of treatments may be required to effectively manage shoulder arthritis.
