Are you struggling with persistent joint pain that hasn’t improved with rest, physiotherapy, or other treatments? Foot Clinic NI is pleased to announce the launch of our dedicated Joint Injection Clinic, offering expert ultrasound-guided injections for both upper and lower limbs. Located in Bangor, our expanded service brings fast, targeted pain relief to patients across Northern Ireland.
What is the Joint Injection Clinic?
Our Injection Clinic specialises in precise, image-guided injections designed to reduce inflammation, lubricate joints, and provide effective pain relief. All injections are performed under real-time ultrasound guidance by our experienced HCPC-registered clinicians. This advanced technique ensures the medication reaches exactly the right spot, improving results while minimising discomfort and risks.
We offer two main types of injections:
