Steroid injections, also known as corticosteroid injections, are administered by healthcare professionals directly into the affected area, often with ultrasound imaging for precise placement.

Steroid injections can be used to treat problems such as joint pain, arthritis, sciatica and inflammatory bowel disease. In Podiatry, they are used for the following:

When administered to the affected area, these injections play a crucial role in reducing inflammation.

Steroid injections can effectively ease foot and ankle pain by reducing inflammation, improving mobility and comfort for individuals with chronic foot pain.

Podiatrists target inflammation using ultrasound to deliver steroid medication directly for maximum effectiveness.

Steroid injections provide temporary relief and are often used with other treatments like physical therapy or orthotics.

Steroid injections are effective but have risks. Our podiatrists will carefully assess patients before recommending this treatment, and regular check-ups may be required to monitor progress and side effects.

Our podiatrist will discuss the potential risks and benefits of steroid injections with you before undergoing the procedure.

After a foot steroid injection, rest and elevate the foot for 24 hours and avoid strenuous activities for a week. Follow our podiatrist's care instructions for the best outcome and discuss any walking concerns.

The duration of relief from a steroid injection varies from person to person. Steroid injections temporarily reduce inflammation and pain, and our podiatrist will discuss how long it might help you based on your situation.

The pain experienced during a foot steroid injection varies for each person. We use a local anaesthetic to numb the area and employ techniques to make the procedure easier. For your comfort during the procedure, it's important to share any pain concerns with us.

If steroid injections in the foot are ineffective, your podiatrist may suggest alternative treatments such as physical therapy, orthotic devices, medications, or minimally invasive procedures. Further tests may be done to reassess the cause of the foot pain, and your podiatrist will collaborate with you to create a personalised treatment plan.

If you’re seeking relief from foot pain, look no further. Our skilled podiatrists at Bucks Podiatry provide swift and efficient treatment for your discomfort.
