Understanding Joint Pain

Joint pain has many causes, each requiring a unique approach to treatment. Pain may occur in a single joint, such as the knee or shoulder, or involve multiple joints, depending on the condition. It can result from degenerative diseases, injuries, or overuse, and its severity can vary from mild discomfort to debilitating pain.

Some common causes of joint pain include:

Injuries: Damage from fractures, ligament tears, or cartilage injuries often leads to lingering discomfort and stiffness.

Inflammation: Conditions like bursitis or tendonitis result in fluid buildup in the joint, causing pain and reduced mobility.

Degeneration: Osteoarthritis, the most common cause of joint pain, involves the breakdown of cartilage and synovial fluid, leading to bone-on-bone friction and inflammation.

Autoimmune Disorders: Rheumatoid arthritis causes the immune system to attack healthy joint tissue, resulting in chronic pain, swelling, and stiffness.

Repetitive Stress: Overuse from physical activity or work can cause cumulative wear-and-tear injuries, impacting joints over time.

Joint pain doesn’t just affect your body—it can impact your mental health, sleep quality, and ability to perform daily tasks. That’s why we take a comprehensive approach to diagnosing and treating joint pain, focusing on both the symptoms and underlying causes.

Tailored Treatments for Every Joint

At The Pain Experts of Arizona, we recognize that every patient’s experience with joint pain is unique. Whether you’re treating knee pain, managing carpal tunnel syndrome, or addressing shoulder stiffness, we offer a variety of evidence-based treatments to provide relief and support recovery.

Our process begins with a detailed evaluation, including a physical exam, imaging studies, and, if needed, blood tests to check for inflammation, infections, or autoimmune conditions. This thorough approach allows us to pinpoint the cause of your joint pain and customize a treatment plan that works for you. We believe in empowering our patients with knowledge, ensuring you understand every step of your care journey.

Advanced Joint Pain Treatment Options

We offer a wide range of treatments for joint pain, designed to alleviate discomfort, improve function, and support joint health. Some of the types of joint injections we offer include:

Corticosteroid Injections: These anti-inflammatory injections provide targeted pain relief, especially for conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, plantar fasciitis, or severe osteoarthritis.

Hyaluronic Acid Injections: Often used for treating knee pain, these injections restore lubrication to the joint, improving mobility and reducing discomfort in patients with osteoarthritis.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy: PRP uses your body’s platelets to promote the healing and regeneration of joint tissues, offering long-term relief for chronic joint pain and injuries.

Stem Cell Injections: Bone marrow-derived stem cells support the repair of damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and enhance recovery from advanced arthritis or joint injuries.

Nerve Blocks: These injections target specific nerves to block pain signals, providing relief for patients experiencing severe or chronic joint pain.

Steroid Injections: Similar to corticosteroids, these injections deliver rapid relief for acute joint pain caused by inflammation or injury.

Each of these treatments is tailored to your specific condition and goals, whether you’re addressing hip pain, knee stiffness, or multiple affected joints.
