Preparation
You should come to the procedure with your own medicine. After the procedure, do not strain the joint for about two days.
Description of the study
The service involves inserting a needle into the affected joint/other structure (e.g., muscle, fascia) so that the drug can be administered topically.
The puncture area is disinfected with a disinfectant. The doctor inserts a sterile needle connected to a syringe into the joint. As it passes through the skin and subcutaneous tissue, the patient feels a sting (as a rule, the pain is not very severe and lasts a short time).
After the puncture (if the patient has his medication), the doctor has the option of administering the drug directly into the joint/muscle, etc. (anti-inflammatory, anesthetic, etc.). After removing the needle, the puncture site is protected with a sterile dressing, which can be removed the same day. It is important to remember not to strain the joint for about two days after the puncture.
