Joint Injection Therapy in Leicester
Relieve Pain, Restore Movement – Joint Injection Therapy at The Health Suite Leicester.
The Health Suite in Leicester offers Joint Injection Therapy as part of its comprehensive rheumatology services. This treatment involves the injection of medication directly into the affected joint to reduce inflammation and alleviate pain, which is particularly beneficial for conditions like osteoarthritis. Our team of highly trained specialists ensures a patient-centred approach, tailoring each treatment plan to individual needs. By integrating conventional medical practices with complementary therapies, The Health Suite provides holistic care aimed at improving overall well-being.
Joint Injection Therapy can help to treat several different conditions:
- Mild to moderate osteoarthritis
- Epicondylitis (tennis elbow)
- Plantar fasciitis
- Patellar tip syndrome
- Tendinopathy of the shoulder, hip and knee
- Achilles tendinopathy
Different Types of Joint Injection Therapy
- Corticosteroid (steroid) injections: Steroid injections work by reducing inflammation in the affected joint or tissue and are often given to patients with severe joint or tendon pain. They are injected directly into the site which is affected to give targeted treatment. Steroids may act fast to ease pain by reducing inflammation and are often given with local anaesthetics. However, you are limited to the total number you may have for a joint.
- Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) therapy: PRP therapy has become more popular due to the added duration of benefit you gain from the treatment. PRP works to reduce pain and heal the affected area by delivering concentrated healing and growth factors from the patient’s blood. This promotes tissue regeneration and cellular growth. PRP as a treatment aims to help reduce deterioration in the joint and tissues, delaying or even reducing the need for surgery in the future. It can work as long-term therapy to help patients heal themselves. It is rare to see side effects with PRP therapy as it is refined from the patient’s blood. The concentrated platelets, growth factors and bioactive proteins all help to heal the patient’s injury over time.
- Hyaluronic acid injections: Hyaluronic acid is found naturally in joints. It allows them to move easily and freely, helping to absorb the shocks of daily activity. An injection of hyaluronic acid into the joint can be used to treat pain and improve movement in joints for individuals suffering from osteoarthritis, with benefits lasting up to 12 months. It can also delay the need for joint replacement compared to steroid therapy or conservative management. The hyaluronic acid used at the clinic is not made from animal sources, reducing the chance of an allergic reaction. The type of hyaluronic acid used at the clinic is a long-acting one. This reduces the need for multiple injections and provides long-lasting benefits, allowing the hyaluronic acid to remain in the joints for an extended period.
