Overview
Joint pain is one of the most common reasons adults seek specialist medical care affecting the knees, hips, shoulders, wrists, ankles, and small joints of the hands and feet. Whether arising from osteoarthritis, inflammatory arthritis, injury, or degeneration, joint pain progressively restricts movement, reduces independence, and diminishes quality of life. Dr Malik’s joint pain service combines real-time musculoskeletal ultrasound assessment with a full range of image-guided injection therapies including corticosteroid, hyaluronic acid, and PRP treatments to deliver targeted relief and restore function, often avoiding or significantly delaying the need for joint replacement surgery.
