@precisioncaremedical: What is joint aspiration? Knee joint aspiration is a procedure in which a doctor removes fluid from the knee joint using a needle and syringe. This procedure can be used to diagnose the cause of knee pain or to relieve pressure in the joint. Traditionally, steroids have been used in knee joint aspirations to reduce inflammation and pain. However, in some cases, the use of ketorolac may be considered instead of steroids. Ketorolac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that can be injected directly into the joint to reduce inflammation and pain. The use of ketorolac instead of steroids may be preferred in certain situations, such as if the patient has a known allergy to steroids or diabetes. #kneepain #jointaspiration #synovialfluid #kneepainrelief #osteoarthritis #osteoarthritisofkneejoint #osteoarthritistreatment #painmanagement
