Intra Articular injections for the treatment of shoulder pain

Follow
The London Pain Clinic

Shoulder Pain refers to any form of pain felt in the shoulder or around the shoulder joint.

The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the human body. This particular joint includes four tendons, having the function of holding the muscle to the bone.

Any swelling, inflammation, tearing or bony changes around these tendons causes pain when a person tries to move the arm upwards, backwards, straight out or in the front.

The intraarticular steroid injections are a treatment method for relief from joint pain. These steroids are used to decrease the inflammatory reaction associated with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. The most prominent indication of the use of such steroid injection is conservative management of an impingement. An intraarticular steroid injection for the shoulder is also known as a subacromial injection as it is injected into the subacromial space in the shoulder. This form of treatment is a common remedy for painful conditions of the shoulder such as the rotator cuff disease. Basically, the intraarticular steroid injections aim to provide a 2 to 6 week relief from shoulder pain. Meanwhile, the higherdose steroids with or without joint lavage can provide pain relief up to 24 weeks.
