Joint Injections

Joint injections can be performed to help hip and knee conditions causing pain and in early arthritic conditions. A steroid with local anaesthetic injection can give instant relief, in most instances in clinic. Shoulder and small joint injections are also available.

Visco-supplementation injections

Like steroid injections, these have an added component called Hyaluronic acid which helps lubricate the knee and is useful for treating early arthritis.

Frequently Asked Questions

Metastatic bone disease is when cancer that started elsewhere in the body spreads to the bone. It can affect how strong the bone is and cause pain, so care focuses on comfort, stability, and quality of life. This is usually coordinated with a wider specialist team.

Seek advice if you have pain that is ongoing, getting worse, or affecting your daily life. New signs such as a lump, swelling, or pain you can’t explain are also worth having checked.

Whether you need a referral depends on your situation and how you’d like to access care. We can guide you on what’s needed to arrange an appointment.
