Why Specialist Treatment for Joint Pain Matters
Joint pain can arise from many causes including arthritis, injury, overuse, inflammation, or nerve related issues. Because symptoms often overlap, accurate diagnosis is essential. Treating the wrong structure can lead to frustration and limited improvement.
A specialist assessment helps identify the true source of pain and guides a personalised treatment plan. This ensures that interventions are targeted, appropriate, and aligned with your goals, whether that is returning to sport, improving mobility, or moving more comfortably day to day.
Consultant Led Assessment and Diagnosis
Your assessment typically includes
• Detailed discussion of symptoms and medical history
• Examination of joint movement strength and stability
• Review of previous imaging such as X ray MRI or ultrasound
• Consideration of activity levels lifestyle factors and previous treatments
If further imaging is required, your consultant will advise on the most appropriate option. The aim is to clearly identify what is driving your pain so treatment can be precisely targeted.
Targeted Evidence Based Interventions
Once the likely source of pain is identified, suitable treatment options may include
• Steroid injections to reduce inflammation
• PRP or stem cell therapy in selected cases
• Nerve blocks to interrupt pain signals
• Radiofrequency ablation for longer lasting relief
• Combined approaches with physiotherapy or rehabilitation
Each treatment is chosen based on symptoms imaging findings and overall health.
