Every month at CEAD (Centro Especializado en Alivio del Dolor) we attend more than 1500 patients, and approximately 28% of them suffer from joint pain, being knee pain one of the most common, in addition to articular cartilage injury one of the most recurrent causes of pain.
What procedure is performed for Knee Pain?
For this type of pain we perform an outpatient procedure that takes 10 to 15 minutes; this is the Knee Joint Block. It is a medical technique in which a local anesthetic and an anti-inflammatory drug is injected into the knee joint to relieve pain and inflammation.
The goal is to block the sensation of pain and reduce inflammation in the joint. This procedure is often used as part of the treatment for conditions such as osteoarthritis or arthritis, offers great advantages such as almost immediate relief, and applies to most knee pain. The patient can undergo such treatment as long as the medical specialist determines that it is suitable.
