Conditions that are sometimes treated by steroid injections include arthritis, tendinitis and bursitis. 

 

Depending on the condition, when corticosteroids (also known as steroids) are injected into or surrounding a painful or injured area, they can reduce the associated pain and inflammation. 

This can also help improve joint mobility and reduce swelling. 

​

There are some associated side effects of steroid use especially over long-term use, so it is best to book an initial consultation to discuss treatment options.
