Knee Specialist FAQ

An ultrasound allows us to see "soft tissue" structures that X-rays miss. We can identify joint inflammation, degenerative changes - osteoarthritis to some extent, ligament sprains, and tendonitis. Because it is a live scan, we can move your knee during the assessment to see exactly when and where your pain occurs.

They serve different purposes. MRI is better for looking deep inside the bone cartilage meniscus and internal ligaments, but ultrasound is superior for dynamic imaging. We can visualize fluid movement and "catching" in real-time, and unlike an MRI, there is no waiting list.

Most patients are pleasantly surprised by how little they feel. We use live ultrasound guidance to navigate the needle precisely, avoiding sensitive nerves. A local anaesthetic is also used to numb the area beforehand.

Yes, in the vast majority of cases, you can drive immediately. We simply ask that you wait in our clinic for 15 minutes to ensure you feel 100% comfortable before heading home.

No. You can self-refer and book directly with us. This removes the typical 4–8 week wait for a GP appointment and subsequent hospital referral.

Research shows that "blind" injections (done by feel) can miss the knee joint space up to 30% of the time. Ultrasound guidance ensures 100% accuracy, meaning the medication is delivered exactly where it will provide the most relief.

For many patients with osteoarthritis, these treatments can delay or even prevent the need for surgery. By reducing inflammation and improving lubrication, we can help you stay active and maintain joint health for longer.

Inflammatory fluid often "settles" when you are still, causing increased pressure within the joint. A targeted steroid or lubricant injection reduces this internal swelling, significantly improving your quality of sleep.

Yes, but you must monitor your blood sugar levels closely for 48–72 hours afterward. Steroids can cause a temporary spike in glucose. We will discuss your specific management plan during your consultation.

Yes. If your knee is heavily swollen, we use ultrasound to drain the excess fluid (aspirate) before administering medication. This provides immediate pressure relief and restores your range of motion.

We recommend 48 hours of relative rest. Avoid heavy squatting, running, or high-impact sports during this time to allow the medication to settle into the tissue and maximize the healing effect.

Serious complications like infection are extremely rare (approx. 1 in 20,000). We follow strict sterile protocols and use single-use equipment to ensure the highest levels of safety and clinical excellence.

These act like a shock absorber and lubricant for the knee. They are effective for arthritis, helping the joint glide smoothly without the side effects associated with long-term steroid use.

Ideally, yes. The injection provides a "pain-free window" that allows you to perform strengthening exercises that were previously too painful. This combination offers the best long-term outcome for knee health.

Yes. We offer a "One-Stop" service. Following your diagnostic scan, if an injection is clinically indicated and safe, we can usually perform the procedure during the same 45-minute appointment.
