Musculoskeletal assessment and joint injection care
Danton Medical Clinic supports patients with sports medicine and musculoskeletal concerns such as knee pain, shoulder pain, arthritis flares, tendon or ligament injuries, sprains, strains, and activity-related pain. A clinical assessment helps determine whether imaging, physiotherapy, medication, injection, or referral is appropriate.
Joint injections may be considered for selected patients after review of symptoms, diagnosis, risks, benefits, and alternatives. Not every joint concern is suitable for injection, and urgent injuries may need emergency or specialist care.
