Time-Released Steroid Knee Injection
In this video, Dr Batson demonstrates the process of a time-released steroid injection for the knee—a common and effective treatment for those experiencing joint pain, arthritis, or inflammation that has not improved with other conservative options.
Steroid injections work by delivering powerful anti-inflammatory medication directly into the knee joint. With the time-released formulation, the medication is absorbed slowly, providing longer-lasting pain relief and helping patients return to daily activities with greater comfort and mobility.
During the procedure, Dr Batson carefully identifies the injection site and uses a precision to ensure accuracy and comfort.
The injection itself takes only a few moments, but the benefits may last weeks to months.
At Lowcountry Spine & Sport, we are committed to using the latest advances in pain management to help you find relief without unnecessary surgery.

Our Lowcountry Spine & Sport Committment to Your Health
I have been in private practice for over 10 years in the Lowcountry providing nonsurgical spine and sports medicine care in a safe and compassionate environment. Having performed thousands of medically-proven spine and sports medicine procedures, I know what it takes for immediate pain relief.
Our patients appreciate a doctor who listens and takes the proper time for examination. I believe medical testing and procedures should only be performed when necessary to diagnose your problem, or when medically necessary to treat your pain.
From the entire team at Lowcountry Spine & Sports, we go above and beyond typical care and medical practice to get you back to living your best life.
