Frequently asked questions

In many cases, injections may help reduce inflammation and improve symptoms associated with rotator cuff tendinopathy, shoulder impingement and subacromial bursitis. Treatment suitability depends on the underlying diagnosis, symptom severity and individual treatment goals.
Not always. Many shoulder conditions can be assessed through a detailed history, clinical examination and ultrasound assessment. If additional imaging such as X-rays or MRI scans would be helpful, this can be discussed during your consultation.
For some patients, injection therapy may help reduce pain, improve movement and delay or avoid the need for surgery. While this depends on the underlying diagnosis and severity of symptoms, many common shoulder conditions respond well to non-surgical treatment.

Shoulder pain can be caused by a range of conditions including frozen shoulder, rotator cuff tendinopathy, shoulder impingement, subacromial bursitis, AC joint arthritis and biceps tendinopathy. Identifying the underlying cause is important to determine the most appropriate treatment and whether injection therapy may help.
Yes. Injections may help reduce pain and improve shoulder movement in some patients with frozen shoulder. Depending on the severity of symptoms, treatment options may include cortisone injections or hydrodistension to help reduce pain and restore movement.
Hydrodistension is a specialist injection procedure used to treat frozen shoulder. The treatment involves injecting fluid into the shoulder capsule to help stretch the tight tissues surrounding the joint. Hydrodistension may help reduce pain, improve movement and accelerate recovery in suitable patients.
