CORTISONE INJECTIONS FOR KNEE PAIN

needed an injection of cortisone for arthritic knee pain. why does it take so long and drawn out process via the nhs - first see consultant after waiting 4 weeks,. next have x ray - 10 days - next a phone call from the consultant 6 weeks and then finally an appointment to have it done another 4 weeks.

go privately - lay on the couch - examine the knee - have ultra sound scan via computer to pin point the exact place you need the jab - given the cortisone injection and all took place with 30 minutes and then go home with proper advice aftercare

there are a whole amount of procedures like this which could all be done on your first visit.
