Ultrasound Guided Injections
At InPhysio, we offer Corticosteroid and Hyaluronic Acid joint injections to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and improve joint mobility.
Injections May Help With Symptomatic Relief of:
Osteoarrthristis
Osteoarthritis in the knees, shoulders, or ankles is gradual wear and irritation of the joint surfaces, often due to age, previous injury, or overload. It typically feels like achy, stiff, or grinding joint pain that can worsen with movement and ease after warming up.
Frozen Shoulder
Frozen shoulder is a condition where the shoulder joint becomes inflamed and tight, reducing how far you can move it. It usually feels like a deep, aching pain with stiffness that gradually limits everyday movements like reaching or dressing.
Shoulder Impingement
Shoulder impingement happens when the rotator cuff tissues are irritated or squeezed under the bony arch at the top of the shoulder.
It often feels like a pinch, ache, or sharp pain when lifting the arm, reaching overhead, or lying on that side.
Carpal Tunnel
Carpal tunnel is irritation or pressure on a nerve that runs through a small tunnel in the wrist. It often feels like tingling, numbness, or aching in the thumb, fingers, or hand, especially with gripping, typing, or at night.
Trigger Finger
Trigger finger is irritation of the tendon that bends a finger, causing it to catch or get stuck as it moves. It usually feels like stiffness, tenderness, or a clicking sensation when bending the finger, sometimes locking in a bent position.

Faqs
Ultrasound Guided Injections
What can you expect from joint injection treatment visits?
- Consultation and Assessment: Your healthcare provider will carefully assess your condition, medical history, and treatment goals to decide on the best treatment plan.
- Injection Procedure: The injection will be delivered directly into the affected joint. An injection may require the use of Ultrasound Imagery as a guided technique. This guarantees the location of the injection delivery making it more effective in some cases.
- Post-Injection Care: You might feel temporary discomfort or swelling at the injection site, which can be alleviated with ice, rest, and over-the-counter pain relievers.
- Rehabilitation and Follow-up: Your clinician may suggest physical therapy or rehabilitation exercises to enhance the benefits of the injections and aid in restoring optimal joint function
How long the effects of the injection last?
The effects of steroid and hyaluronic acid injections can last for different lengths of time, depending on factors such as the severity of your condition, the joint or area treated, and how your body responds to the treatment.
Steroid Injections:
- Following the injection, most patients notice a decrease in pain and inflammation within 24 to 48 hours.
- The effects of a steroid injection usually last anywhere from a few weeks to several months, with relief varying depending on the condition’s severity, the injection site, and individual response.
Hyaluronic Acid Injections:
- Hyaluronic acid injections typically take a little longer to reach their full effect.
- Patients can expect improved joint mobility and pain relief within a few weeks.
- These injections usually provide longer-lasting results than steroid injections, often lasting between six months to a year, making them a popular option for individuals with chronic joint issues.
* Most people respond well to treatment, but everybody is unique, and results can vary. Side effects are uncommon, and your therapist will talk you through everything before your injection to make sure you feel comfortable and informed.
