Shoulder Injuries

Most shoulder injuries originates from the soft tissues, muscles, ligaments, and tendons, rather than bones.  It is an extremely common complaint that can have many different causes.  It is best to consult with Dr. Hirsh, Dr. Hutton or Dr. Alvarez so they cause determine what is causing you discomfort.  The shoulder is a highly complex joint with many potential targets for injection.  Any injection into the shoulder, whether with steroid (cortisone), viscosupplement, or platelet rich plasma, is best performed in our office under ultrasound guidance.
