How Tenosynovial Injection is performed
Under real-time ultrasound guidance, the affected tendon sheath and tendon are located, and an appropriate needle is selected for percutaneous puncture into the tendon sheath cavity. A common practice is to inject a small dose of medication under sterile conditions, such as local anesthetics, corticosteroids, or viscoelastic supplements (if applicable), to reduce inflammation and stenosis. After the injection, local reactions and finger movements are observed, and splints and load management are added if necessary. The above is general health information and not medical advice; specific information is subject to specialist assessment and hospital protocols.
