Joint Injection

  • We are delighted to offer Shoulder & Knee Joint Injection
  • These are suitable for a variety of conditions
    • eg. Osteoarthritis, Frozen Shoulder,
    • Meniscal (cartilage) tears
    • & Rotator Cuff injuries (muscles in shoulder)
  • Injection can be helpful as part of the treatment for these conditions
  • The injection includes local anaesthetic and steroid mixture to help relieve inflammation and pain

 


 

Who is suitable for a Joint Injection?

  • Many people are suitable but not everyone
  • Certain conditions will not be helped by steroid injection e.g. muscle tears
  • People on certain medications e.g. blood thinners, may not be good candidates for a joint injection
  • Joint injections can be very helpful, but also have a small risk of complications e.g. infection, failure, bruising, bleeding

 


 

How much does this cost?

  • Most Health Insurance policies (VHI, Laya, Irish Life) cover Joint Injections
  • If you do not have health insurance, cost is €100
  • If you have a valid medical card, cost is €60

 


 

How do I organise a Joint injection?

  • Please book in with Dr. Sugan Nayager or Dr. Helen Kilrane
    who will ask you questions about your symptoms, examine your joint(s) and let you know if you might be a candidate for a joint injection
  • The Doctor will then provide you with the necessary medication and a separate appointment for the injection itself
  • Please discuss further with our receptionists
