At SOLUTIONS Pain and Spine Doctors in Peachtree Corners, Buford & Decatur, GA, we offer specialized Hip Injection treatments to provide targeted pain relief, reduce inflammation, and restore functionality, allowing you to regain control and enjoy an active lifestyle.

 

What is a Hip Injection?

A Hip Injection is a minimally invasive procedure that involves the direct delivery of medication into the hip joint. The injection typically includes a combination of corticosteroids, which reduce inflammation, and local anesthetics, which provide immediate pain relief. This treatment is performed under the guidance of advanced imaging techniques to ensure accuracy and effectiveness.

 

Conditions Treated by Hip Injection

Hip Injections can effectively manage pain associated with various hip conditions, including:

Osteoarthritis: The most common form of arthritis, osteoarthritis can lead to the breakdown of joint cartilage, causing pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility in the hip joint.

Rheumatoid arthritis: A chronic inflammatory condition, rheumatoid arthritis can cause joint pain, swelling, and stiffness, affecting the hip joint.

Bursitis: Inflammation of the bursae (small fluid-filled sacs) around the hip joint can result in localized pain and discomfort.

Tendinitis: Overuse or repetitive strain on the tendons surrounding the hip joint can lead to inflammation, pain, and limited movement.
