Steroid injection

Dr. Mohamed Elsayad who gave me steroid injection in each knee over a period of two weeks[ i.e. One leg at a time per week] was a perfect gentleman laughing all the time made me very comfortable and gave me injection professionally without any problems. Though i was advised not to drive home after the injection I managed to get home safely each time. He is a real professional and a great doctor/radiology consultant and I would recommend him to anybody. Anybody would feel safe with him. So request for his services when one needs to Jitendra Mehta

Immediate reduction in knee swelling and gradual reduction in pain.

The injection was relatively painless and I have now changed from feeling mild discomfort when using my shoulder e.g. when opening the fridge to no discomfort at all. So much so, I pulled the handle off the fridge.

I had a steroid injection in my shoulder following a procedure to remove excess calcification in my shoulder joint. I was able to drive and work at a computer directly after the treatment and it gave me the ability to exercise the shoulder fully in the coming days without the pain I would otherwise have had (and would probably have stopped me doing the exercises). It lasted about 5 days and my only comment would be that, although helpful for the pain, it made it difficult to tell if what I was doing in the meantime was working (physio) and whether the actual procedure had been a success.
