A hand or wrist injection is a procedure where an injection is given to an area of the hand or wrist as part of your treatment.
The procedure can be carried out in a clinic, without the need for a theatre setting. Your clinician will assess your symptoms and decide whether an injection is an appropriate treatment option for you.
