Another injection please
Good afternoon Dr Bland.
I was wondering if there was any chance I could have another injection. I have had two, the last one was in June and it is amazing how it works giving relief almost immediately. Unfortunately all the symptoms have returned again and it’s back to the sleepless nights. Many thanks

steroid injection in November
Good afternoon, I had a steroid iinjection in November in my Right wrist which seemed to help for a while but over last few weeks the symptoms have began to creep back and both hands feel painful and if I clench them I feel the pain in all my fingers, the fizzy feeling and numbness are coming back also. I do wear my splints some nights when my hands feel painful after using them all day.
Feedback after steroid injection
Hi
I came to the clinic on the 30th November and following tests I had a conversation with Dr Nick(?) who gave me the option of having steroid injections there and then.
First of all I want to say thank you for such excellent service and efficiency. Really friendly staff too.
Secondly, I'm very pleased to say the injections have worked really well so far, no pain in the mornings in my thumb, index or middle fingers of either of my hands since.
Steroids didnt work

Thanks

Pain returned after steroid injections
Hi I had a steroid injection last year that relived the pain in my wrists and hand but has returned over the last few months. Was wondering if I could discuss what actions to take next. The wrist splint works during the day but it wakes me up most nights. Tried paracetamol and ibuprofen but it only masks the pain. Are there any painkillers that would help?
Thanks Duncan McGinley
