Injections & Aspirations

At Advanced Bone & Joint, we believe that the path to wellness does not always have to involve invasive surgical procedures. Our team of highly skilled orthopedic providers is deeply committed to exploring non-invasive and minimally invasive treatments first, including ultrasound-guided trigger point injections and aspirations, ensuring a gentler, yet effective approach to your care.

We understand that conditions like lower back pain and neck pain can be debilitating and significantly impact your quality of life. That is why we often resort to innovative treatment options, such as injections and aspirations. These techniques involve using precision-guided needles to either inject medication or extract fluid, providing relief from pain and discomfort. Despite their minimal nature, these treatments have proven highly effective in managing various types of pain and promoting recovery.

Our goal is to empower you on your journey to wellness, making the process as comfortable as possible while still delivering optimal results.

Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Injections

Our team is proud to offer an extensive range of minimally invasive orthopedic injections, like ultrasound-guided and trigger point injections, to provide you with joint relief, pain management, and peace of mind. These injection treatments include the following:

Peripheral joint injections are a powerful treatment tool that we utilize to alleviate pain and inflammation in your body's peripheral joints, such as the knees, hips, and shoulders. In this procedure, a steroid medication is precisely injected into the affected joint, offering direct joint relief right where you need it most. This targeted method can significantly reduce discomfort and enhance mobility, empowering you to live a more active and fulfilling life.

Trigger point injections are used to treat knots of tight muscles in many areas of the body. Trigger points are tight bands of muscle that are sensitive to touch. The trigger point can irritate surrounding nerves and cause referred pain, a type of pain that radiates to nearby areas. Trigger points can result in migraine headaches, as well as pain in the neck, back, and shoulders.

At Advanced Bone & Joint, our orthopedic specialists use ultrasound to guide injections, ensuring the medication is delivered precisely where it is needed to bring you relief from your pain and other symptoms.

Aspirations

Aspirations are an advanced non-surgical technique in which our orthopedic surgeons use a needle and a syringe to remove fluid from a joint or cyst. This procedure is often used to relieve pressure, provide joint relief, and help diagnose conditions such as arthritis or gout. Not only can aspirations provide immediate relief from discomfort, but it also allows our team of expert orthopedic surgeons to analyze the extracted fluid for further diagnosis, ensuring a comprehensive approach to your wellness.
