Ultrasound guided injection - PiedRéseau Lévis
At PiedRéseau Lévis, we offer ultrasound-guided injection as part of our specialized sports podiatry services. This advanced technique allows our podiatrists to deliver treatment directly to the affected area, providing targeted relief for various foot conditions. Utilizing ultrasound guidance, we can administer anti-inflammatory solutions, similar to cortisone injections, effectively addressing issues such as osteoarthritis of the big toe, plantar fasciitis, and Morton’s neuroma.
Ultrasound-guided injections enhance the precision of treatment, allowing our practitioners to target difficult-to-reach areas with greater accuracy. This method not only provides rapid pain relief but also minimizes the risk of complications. The procedure is designed to be performed in our clinic, ensuring a comfortable and safe environment for patients seeking effective solutions for their foot ailments.
The process involves several steps, including a thorough assessment of the patient’s condition, imaging of the affected area, and the careful administration of the injection under ultrasound guidance. This meticulous approach helps to ensure optimal outcomes and a swift recovery process for our patients.
Our team consists of experienced professionals dedicated to providing high-quality podiatric care. Dr. Marie-Christine Bourque, podiatrist-owner, and Dr. Jenny Boutin, podiatrist, lead our clinic with their expertise in various podiatric treatments. Together with our skilled foot care nurses and assistants, they ensure that every patient receives attentive and personalized care during their visit.
