This is quite a common question I get in clinic nowadays. Steroid injection may be an option given by the doctor for a quick-fix/ immediate pain relief (with varying results as nothing is guaranteed in the medical realm). Chances of the pain returning will be high if one does not resolve the underlying cause of the pain to begin with. Case scenario: changing the tennis serve technique ➡️ pain ➡️ steroid injection ➡️ no pain ➡️ continue to perform the tennis serve technique that causes pain ➡️ pain return. And usually there is a maximum of 2 steroid injections that will be offered to the same painful joint. It is suggested that one should trial conservative management (medications + physiotherapy + change in lifestyle/ habit/ posture) first before a more invasive treatment like steroid injection, and an operation as a last resort. In every scenario, it is highly recommended to discuss the best option appropriate to you at that stage. Take good care of your body and avoid making a hasty decision.
