How it works
A healthcare professional places a small needle into the affected joint and injects a corticosteroid, sometimes combined with a local anaesthetic. The steroid reduces inflammation inside the joint, which can provide pain relief and improve movement.
How long does it take to work?
Some people notice improvement within a few days, while others may take longer. The duration of relief varies depending on the joint, condition, and individual.
