Arthritis Pain Management

Information may not be reliable

Pain injections for arthritis in Queens work because they can place the medication directly onto the affected area. For example, if you have arthritis in your hands the injections will be placed directly into your hands. This is a much more efficient option than, for example, taking oral medications. Oral medications have to travel throughout your body to give you relief, which is far less efficient.

Another reason why these injections can be so effective is because the doctor can offer multiple medications in a single shot. In many cases our patients will have injections that include pain medication, steroids and anti-inflammatory medication. This will help you to get the best possible results. The doctors will work with you to determine exactly which medications are best suited for your specific situation.

There are lots of options out there when it comes to managing the pain of arthritis, so why choose injections? One of the most important reasons is because injections are typically going to be the safest option. When you take oral medication you need to take it in higher doses because it is not targeted. Surgery also has risks associated with it. When you use pain injections for arthritis in Queens, however, you can use lower doses of medication while still getting the best possible relief from the pain. You simply can’t find a better option in most circumstances.
