Abstract des Autors
Corticosteroid injections are powerful, effective adjuncts in treating exercise-related musculoskeletal injuries. This article describes a variety of different injection techniques than can be applied to many types of injuries. Specific attention is placed on knowing the exact location of the injury, so the injection can be properly administered. The injections were applied to a variety of chronic conditions that "seem to fail all the usual conservative measures". The vast majority had an excellent response to the injections and were able to progress with the rehabilitation programme. The effectiveness of the injections is primarily dependent on "hitting the target site", and following the injections with a comprehensive rehabilitation programme. Verf.-Referat
