Useful, very clear technique, thanks.

Nice video, very complete including the mix of steroid and equipment needed. A good refresher to watch for practitioner's if it's been a while since your last shoulder injection.

[alexshaun98]

why did you not aspirate before injecting the steroid+lignocaine?

[drmorb]

@alexshaun98 duh, b/c there is no effusion moron?

[alexshaun98]

@drmorb

How would you know that without aspirating, you dimwit?

[drmorb]

@alexshaun98 pretty obvious if youve ever worked in ortho douchenozzle

[alexshaun98]

@drmorb

Ortho???

Oh you mean the butchers with no medical knowledge!

[drmorb]

@alexshaun98 lol, M.D.'s have no medical knowledge? just when i thought you couldn't get any dumber, please don't reproduce, give me your address and ill hook you up with free condoms on the off chance you ever find a female

[alexshaun98]

@drmorb

Thanks for the offer for free condoms.

Suggest that you pass some of it your dad first, to make sure that he does not produce any more retards.

@alexshaun98 a very poor comeback, you're a desperate sort of lad, leading a pathetic existence, i feel sorry for you actually

@alexshaun98 Exactly what do you think is there to aspirate with shoulder impingement? I've had cortisone and Lidocaine (not Lignocain) injections (a few actually) for this same problem (impingement / partial tear) and there was never anything aspirated before the injection(s).

@Soulrider2012 @drmorb @alexshaun98 The point of aspirating is not to resolve an effusion. Before injecting the steroid, the doctor should pull back on the plunger and observe whether there is a flash. If blood enters the syringe, then the needle is in a vein, and the doctor should start the procedure over from step one, not risk injecting directly into the bloodstream.

Better to do them under ultrasound.

i had one of these done and i still have pain and it has been a few weeks. but when i got it it felt like alot of pressure.

[daisysue05]

Yikes....there is no way in hell I could let someone put a needle that long in my arm!

[enjam]

they only put 1/3 of it in your arm or wherever you have it
