What To Expect From Joint Injections at Hands of Hope

Our physicians strive to make the injection process as comfortable as possible for you! We’ll begin by applying a numbing agent to the injection site. Next, we’ll use an X-ray machine to guide the injection directly into the joint, helping to ensure accuracy and comfort.

We offer two types of injections:

Steroid injections contain corticosteroids, a medicine that reduces inflammation and relieves pain. These injections can typically relieve pain for several weeks to a few months. While these are a safe approach to pain management, they have some drawbacks, including increasing your blood sugar.

Non-steroid injections provide an alternative. They might contain hyaluronic gel, saline solution, or other non-steroid materials that provide additional lubrication to your joint, helping to relieve pain. Depending on various factors, they can last up to six months at a time.

We understand everyone has different medical histories, conditions, and pain management goals. Our team will work closely with you to find the right joint injections to help you safely and effectively reduce pain, restore mobility, and improve your quality of life.
