Spinal injections, including selective nerve root blocks (SNRBs), epidural and transforaminal steroid injections, and facet blocks, are used to manage pain and inflammation in the spine. SNRBs target specific nerve roots to diagnose and treat nerve-related pain, while epidural and transforaminal injections deliver steroids into the epidural space or around nerve roots to reduce inflammation and pain. Facet blocks target the small joints of the spine, addressing pain and inflammation due to arthritis or degeneration.

Local steroid injections and Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injections are both used to manage pain and promote healing in conditions like tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, plantar fasciitis, and rotator cuff tendonitis. PRP injections are considered more effective in the long term for tennis elbow and golfer's elbow, while steroid injections provide short-term pain relief. PRP is also a viable option for plantar fasciitis and rotator cuff tendonitis.

Joint injections, including steroid, hyaluronic acid, and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, are common treatments for osteoarthritis and other joint conditions. They offer varying degrees of pain relief and functional improvement, with differing levels of effectiveness and potential side effects.
