If one or more joints are causing you pain, then it may be possible to focus treatment on them. A joint block is an injection of an anesthetic (numbing medicine) and a steroid that is used to help diagnose and treat joint pain.

Did you Know?

Joint injections may be performed to help diagnose exactly which joints are the source of pain? For example, if a joint is injected with local anesthetic, and the pain goes away while an aesthetic is working, it means that, that joint is most likely the source of pain. We can then use longer-term interventional treatment to focus on the joints causing the pain.
