injections
At Kaysville Clinic, we offer a variety of injections to help our patients with various health conditions. These injections include cortisone, hyalgan and synvisc, and B12. Our team of medical professionals is trained and experienced in administering these injections safely and effectively.
Cortisone Injections
Cortisone injections are a type of steroid medication that is injected into the body to reduce inflammation and pain. They contain a synthetic version of cortisol, which is a hormone naturally produced by the body. These injections are commonly used to treat conditions such as arthritis, tendonitis, bursitis, and other inflammatory disorders.
What can Cortisone Injections Treat?
- Arthritis: Cortisone injections can provide relief for patients with arthritis, including osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
- Tendonitis: These injections can help reduce pain and inflammation in the tendons, which are tissues that connect muscles to bones.
- Bursitis: Bursae are small fluid-filled sacs that cushion and lubricate joints. When these sacs become inflamed, cortisone injections can be used to reduce pain and inflammation.
Benefits of Cortisone Injections
- Quick relief: Cortisone injections provide fast and effective pain relief for a variety of conditions.
- Minimally invasive: These injections are administered directly into the affected area, making them less invasive compared to other treatment options.
- Long-lasting effects: The effects of cortisone injections can last for several weeks or months, providing extended relief from pain and inflammation.
Hyalgan and Synvisc Injections
Hyalgan and Synvisc are types of hyaluronic acid injections. Hyaluronic acid is a substance naturally found in the body that helps lubricate and cushion joints. These injections are used to treat osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease that causes pain and stiffness in the joints.
What can Hyalgan and Synvisc Injections Treat?
- Osteoarthritis: These injections can provide relief for patients with mild to moderate osteoarthritis by reducing pain and improving joint mobility.
Benefits of Hyalgan and Synvisc Injections

- Long-lasting effects: The benefits of these injections can last for several months, providing extended relief from osteoarthritis symptoms.
B12 Injections
B12 injections are a type of vitamin supplement that contains high levels of vitamin B12. This essential nutrient is important for various bodily functions, including the production of red blood cells and maintaining a healthy nervous system.
What can B12 Injections Treat?
- Vitamin deficiency: These injections can help treat vitamin B12 deficiency, which can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, and numbness in the hands and feet.
Benefits of B12 Injections
- Boosts energy: By increasing vitamin B12 levels in the body, these injections can help improve energy levels and reduce fatigue.
