Steroid joint injections

Steroid joint injections are given to help reduce pain and swelling, and to help joints move more freely. Many people have steroid injections into their shoulders, knees, elbows or hands, or joints that are affected by arthritis. Small amounts of steroid can treat conditions such as tennis elbow or carpal tunnel syndrome.

If you wish to discuss the possibility of having a steroid joint injection you can speak to Dr Carroll at telephone time: 11am-11.15am or 3pm-3.15pm Monday to Friday.
