ULTRASOUND-GUIDED PRP INJECTION
Ultrasound-guided platelet-rich plasma injections in the joint’s tendons, disc, etc. Effectively reduce disability and pain. Most improvement is seen within four weeks after injection and with sustained reduction at six months.

PROLOTHERAPY WITH HYPERTONIC DEXTROSE
An injection therapy called hypertonic dextrose prolotherapy (DPT) is a treatment for chronic pain in the musculoskeletal system caused by chronic dextrose deposition. The purpose of this treatment is to stimulate a natural healing response at the site of painful soft tissue, tendons, joints, and muscles. It is mostly used to treat joint pain in the knees, fingers, and thumbs of people with osteoarthritis (OA). 

FLUOROSCOPY-GUIDED EPIDURAL INJECTIONS 
A fluoroscopy-guided epidural injection is performed in the cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral regions to treat back and neck pain, as well as other forms of chronic pain. To relieve pain following certain surgical procedures.

FACET JOINTS & SACRO-ILIAC JOINTS INJECTION WITH FLUOROSCOPY.
Age-related changes in your spine or an injury to your spine can cause inflammation in your facet joints, resulting in chronic back or neck pain. Besides your buttocks, legs, shoulders, and arms, this pain can also radiate down your back. A facet joint injection is performed to treat neck and back pain in combination with other non-surgical spine treatments like rest, medications, chiropractic manipulations, and physical therapy.

Potential causes of facet joint pain include:

• Osteoarthritis
• Joint instability
• Traumatic injury
• Impingement (excessive pressure) on joint tissue
• Inflammation of the joint lining

 A facet joint injection can make it easier for you to participate in physical therapy and daily exercises to strengthen your spine. This is because persistent facet joint pain limits your physical activity.

Facet joint injections aim to relieve persistent inflammation at its source. Some people feel immediate relief from their chronic pain, but it can take several days to feel the maximum benefit of your injection.

NERVE BLOCKS WITH ULTRASOUND GUIDANCE.
Using nerve blocks or neural blockades can prevent and manage various pain conditions. 
Medicines are usually injected into specific nerves to block pain.

• Pain after surgery
• Cancer-related pain
• Arthritis pain
• Severe facial pain, like trigeminal neuralgia
• Low back pain
• Headaches, including migraines and occipital neuralgia
• Chronic regional pain syndrome, or CRPS
  
   

TRIGGER POINT AND TENDER POINT INJECTIONS.

Injections of trigger points can be very effective in relieving back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, arm pain, leg pain, and lower back pain. 
(Those "knots" in your muscles that are painful when touched or pressured are called trigger points).

Other uses include:

• Chronic pain conditions, such as myofascial pain syndrome
• Fibromyalgia
• Tension-type headaches.
