Pain injections

If you’re seeking a minimally invasive solution to target pain, pain injections could make a significant impact. Henry Community Health offers a range of injections to reduce pain and inflammation.

Finding the right solution for chronic pain can be exhausting. While basic treatments like nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and physical therapy can help, they might not deliver the results you’re hoping for. More invasive options, like major surgery, can be intimidating and often involve lengthy recovery times. Pain management injections could be the right alternative for you.

Pain injection treatments

BOTOX® for migraines

BOTOX® is known by most as a solution for unwanted wrinkles, but it has far more applications that can truly make a difference in patients’ lives. It has become an excellent treatment option for chronic migraines. Its overall effects on muscles have made it an effective and innovative solution.

Epidural steroid injections

Epidural steroid injections are often used to target back pain and sometimes hip pain. They are delivered into the area surrounding your spinal cord known as the epidural space. The provider will use a tool, likely a live X-ray, to guide a needle with the medication into the appropriate area of the spine. The medication is then released into the epidural space.

Joint injections

Joint injections both reduce pain and inflammation in the joint area targeted by your provider. The medication is delivered through a needle into the joint, ligaments, and/or tendons affected. The procedure will be repeated as needed in any additional areas. There are different types of joint injections, so your provider will review which option is best for you.

Trigger point injections

Trigger point injections treat areas where knots of muscle have formed from ongoing tension. These trigger points may sometimes be felt through the skin. Trigger point injections can be used in many areas of the body. A small needle injects medication into the affected area. This will make the trigger point inactive, which reduces pain. The procedure can be repeated in other areas as needed.
