Knee injections, such as corticosteroids or hyaluronic acid, are generally considered safe and can provide relief for conditions like Arthritis. However, potential risks include infection, allergic reactions, and temporary pain at the injection site. It's essential to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the most appropriate treatment and to discuss any individual risks or concerns. Overall, when performed by a qualified provider, knee injections can be a valuable option for managing knee pain.
I have often heard about cortisone injections as an alternative to knee replacement but it is un heard of to have injection after the knee replacement. What is the logic behind it? Usually injections are taken to subside the pain that arise from contact of arthritic articular surfaces of knee bones. But when knee replacement is already done I do not see a reason for cortisone injection. At the same time if there is sudden severe pain in your knee after replacement surgery doctor might give you a shot of knee injection. Another possibility is if you have partial knee replacement and non operated compartment of your knee joint troubling you. Hope it helps.
