Joint Injection · Tijuana
What Is a Joint Injection?
A joint injection places therapeutic substances directly into the joint cavity or surrounding soft tissue. Treatment reaches the source of pain and degeneration while avoiding the systemic side effects of oral medications.
- Quick outpatient procedure (15 to 20 minutes)
- Ultrasound-guided technique for maximum accuracy
- Viscosupplementation with high-density hyaluronic acid
- Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) with autologous growth factors
When Is It Recommended?
Joint injections are an effective conservative option when standard pain medication is not enough and can preserve the joint to avoid or delay surgery.
Mild to moderate degeneration in the knee, hip, or ankle where joint lubrication has decreased.
Inflammation of the rotator cuff, trochanteric bursa, or Achilles tendon.
Patients seeking to delay the need for joint replacement or open surgery.
Athletes with microtears or joint overuse who need faster tissue recovery.
