Effect of Ultrasound-Guided Subacromial Bursa Injections With Various Doses of Corticosteroid in Subacromial Bursitis: A Retrospective Study
Ultrasound-guided corticosteroid injections represent a safe and effective treatment for subacromial bursitis, with higher doses of triamcinolone offering longer-lasting pain relief. The technique improves precision and minimizes risk, making it a valuable tool in managing refractory shoulder pain. Further prospective studies are recommended to validate these findings and develop standardized dosing protocols.
