What is a Cortisone Injection?

Cortisone injections are anti-inflammatory steroid treatments injected directly into painful joints. At PRP London Clinic, Dr. Hans administers these with precision—often guided by ultrasound—for targeted relief from swelling, stiffness, and discomfort. Commonly treated areas include the knee, shoulder, ankle, and foot.

Conditions Treated with Cortisone

  • Osteoarthritis (Knee, Shoulder, Ankle)
  • Bursitis or Tendonitis
  • Frozen Shoulder
  • Plantar Fasciitis
  • Post-injury inflammation

What to Expect During Treatment

The procedure typically takes 30 minutes and involves cleansing the area, applying a numbing spray or anaesthetic, and administering the injection directly into the joint. Many patients feel relief within a few days, with peak benefit in 1–2 weeks. Effects may last weeks or months depending on the condition treated.

Is It Safe?

Cortisone injections are widely used and safe when administered properly. Dr. Hans uses the lowest effective dose and recommends intervals between treatments to protect cartilage. Side effects are typically mild and short-lived—such as local soreness or skin thinning at the injection site.
