Welcome to Ace Clinic
Steroid Injection Treatment
At ACE Clinic, our experienced practitioners can assess your symptoms and determine whether a steroid injection may be an appropriate treatment option for your condition.
Steroid injections can be used to help reduce pain and inflammation caused by a range of foot and lower-limb conditions. They deliver an anti-inflammatory medication directly into the affected area, helping to target inflammation and provide relief where it is needed.
At ACE Clinic, our experienced practitioners can assess your symptoms and determine whether a steroid injection may be an appropriate treatment option for your condition.
Steroid injections may be considered for conditions involving inflammation and pain, including:
• Plantar fasciitis
• Morton’s neuroma
• 1st MTP joint arthritis (hallux rigidus or hallux limitus)
• Ankle arthritis
What happens during treatment?
Before treatment, your foot will be carefully assessed and your symptoms discussed. If a steroid injection is appropriate, the affected area will be prepared and the medication administered directly to the target area. Your practitioner will explain the procedure and any relevant aftercare before you leave.
Benefits of steroid injections
• Can help reduce localised pain and inflammation
• Medication is delivered directly to the affected area

• Treatment is generally quick and minimally invasive
• Can be used as part of a wider treatment plan
Is a steroid injection right for me?
Steroid injections aren’t suitable for everyone. Your podiatrist will assess your condition, medical history and symptoms before recommending treatment. They will also discuss the potential benefits, risks and alternatives with you so you can make an informed decision.
Book an Appointment
