Find Real Pain Relief with Advanced Therapeutic Injections in New Jersey

Heat packs, prescription medications, stretching routines — you’ve tried it all, but the pain and inflammation relief never seems to last. If you’re looking for something that works at the source of your pain, therapeutic injections could be the answer.

Our team at Arthritis, Rheumatic & Bone Disease Associates offers cutting-edge solutions that go beyond symptom management, helping tissues heal and function the way they should. We understand how debilitating ongoing discomfort can be, and we are committed to helping our patients find relief. Therapeutic injections are an effective, minimally invasive solution designed to treat pain directly at the injection site, offering a non-surgical approach to managing conditions like arthritis. By using these medicines in combination with others, it’s possible to target exactly the affected area of your body. It takes just 10 to 15 minutes per injection appointment, and you get back to daily life uninterrupted.

At our state-of-the-art clinic, therapeutic joint injections are administered by experienced rheumatologists who specialize in diagnosing and treating joint pain and inflammatory conditions. ARBDA is unique because it also offers patients an advanced musculoskeletal ultrasound center — technology that allows for highly precise placement of medication in harder-to-reach joints in the body, such as the shoulder or hand.

We offer a comprehensive range of pain management treatments tailored to your specific needs. Speak with one of our board-certified rheumatologists today and discover whether therapeutic injections may be the solution you’ve been looking for.

Types of Therapeutic Injections We Offer at Our Rheumatology Clinic

At ARBDA, we provide a variety of therapeutic injections to help relieve pain and improve mobility for patients dealing with arthritis, chronic inflammation, and rheumatic disease. Our specialists carefully evaluate each patient’s condition to determine the most effective injections for pain management.

Patients with osteoarthritis frequently experience lower levels of hyaluronic acid naturally present in the synovial fluid. Hyaluronic fluid works as a lubricant in the knee joint to keep the bones from rubbing against each other. However, those with osteoarthritis need an alternative method of receiving the lost lubrication in their joint. 

One treatment option for osteoarthritis of the knee is replacing some of the fluid lost over time with a synthetic version of the same fluid. ARBDA physicians prepare therapeutic injections of viscosupplementation agents that contain some lost hyaluronic acid to once again allow bones to move smoothly without grinding. This viscous lubricating medicine may help to relieve pain for 6 to12 months.

Benefits and Effectiveness of Therapeutic Injections

For many patients, therapeutic injections provide immediate relief from pain and stiffness, allowing them to regain mobility and function. These injections are particularly effective for individuals who haven’t found success with physical therapy, oral anti-inflammatory medications, or other traditional approaches.

Another major benefit is the potential for long-term pain relief without the need for surgery. Therapeutic injections can even be combined with other pain management treatments, such as physical therapy, to enhance overall effectiveness and improve long-term outcomes.

 

Procedure of Injection Therapy

During your injection therapy appointment, our specialists take the time to assess your pain levels and determine the best type of therapeutic injection for your condition.

The skin at the injection site is cleaned, and a local anesthetic is used to minimize mild discomfort. For certain joint injections, imaging guidance may be used to ensure precision.

The procedure itself is quick. Patients can return home the same day and resume normal activities with minimal downtime. While some individuals experience immediate relief, others may notice improvements within a few days as the medication begins to reduce swelling and relieve pain.

Aftercare and Follow-Up Injections

Following therapeutic injections, patients should avoid strenuous activity for at least 24 hours to allow the medication to take full effect. Some mild tenderness at the injection site is normal, but this can be managed with ice packs and over-the-counter anti-inflammatory agents. Our team provides detailed aftercare instructions tailored to each patient’s treatment plan.

Our goal is to help you regain comfort and mobility so you can enjoy daily activities without the burden of chronic pain.
