Everyday Movement Shouldn’t Hurt
Living with joint pain can be exhausting. It may affect your ability to move freely, enjoy physical activities, and even get through simple daily tasks. If this sounds like you, we understand how frustrating it can be to feel stuck in a cycle of pain management. Traditional treatments like oral pain medications or physical therapy often fail to provide lasting relief or take too long to show results. When you’ve tried everything and the pain persists, it’s time for a better solution.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Which joints can be treated with major joint injections?
These injections can be used to treat major joints that commonly experience pain or inflammation, such as the knees, hips, shoulders, and ankles.
Is this the same as a cortisone shot?
Yes, cortisone shots are a type of these injections. Cortisone is an anti-inflammatory medication that reduces swelling and pain in the affected joint. If you’ve ever heard of someone getting a “steroid injection” for joint pain, they are likely referring to this treatment.
Does the injection hurt?
The procedure itself is designed to be as comfortable as possible. Most patients feel little to no pain because a local anesthetic is included in the injection. This anesthetic helps numb the area during the procedure and provides relief afterward.
How long does the joint injection procedure take?
The procedure is quick and efficient—usually taking less than 30 minutes. It’s a convenient option for those with busy schedules, allowing you to receive treatment and get back to your day with minimal disruption.
How soon will I feel relief?
Relief times can vary from person to person. While some individuals notice improvements within just a few hours, most patients begin to feel significant relief within a day or two. For those with severe inflammation, it may take a bit longer to fully experience the benefits, but the goal is to provide long-lasting pain relief.
How long does the relief last?
The duration of pain relief varies depending on the individual and the condition being treated. Your doctor can discuss your specific case to set realistic expectations.
Are there any side effects I should know about?
Side effects are usually minimal but can include mild swelling or discomfort at the injection site. These symptoms typically resolve within a day or two. Your doctor will provide you with all the information you need to feel confident about the procedure.
Can I resume my activities after the injection?
Most patients can return to their normal activities shortly after their major joint injection. However, it’s recommended to avoid strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for 24-48 hours to allow the medication to work effectively. Your doctor will guide you if any specific precautions are needed based on your condition.
