If you have a broken bone, fracture, sprain, or have recently undergone a surgical procedure, it is likely your provider may recommend a cast or brace to treat your condition.
Casting refers to applying a plaster or fiberglass bandage to the treatment area to stabilize and immobilize the affected joint or bone.
Orthopedic braces are important tools designed to align, support, and hold damaged parts of the body, especially the muscles and bones.
Steroid injections, often referred to as cortisone shots or corticosteroids, help alleviate pain and reduce inflammation in the treated areas.

Corticosteroid injections are generally limited to three to four treatments per year.
