De Quervain's tenosynovitis
Suffering from De Quervain's tenosynovitis.
Doctor recommended for injection after two weeks of medication at the pain area.
Doctor has not mentioned the name of injection. He took the patient to OT and injected a very small glass containing injection into the pain area. Which injection is generally given? And why name is not mentioned in prescription? It is just mentioned as Local Infiltration. Please suggest
