A cortisone injection delivers a powerful anti-inflammatory medication directly into a joint to provide significant, though temporary, relief from conditions such as bursitis, tendinitis, and arthritis. We provide cortisone injections in joints including the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, and knee; because of their effects on surrounding tissue over time, injections cannot be given frequently.
