Injection In Foot

Advanced Injection Therapies

At 5th Ave Podiatry, we offer advanced injection therapies like Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and Corti‑Ozone® to promote healing, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain—without surgery. These treatments are ideal for patients with chronic conditions like plantar fasciitis, tendon injuries, or soft tissue inflammation that hasn’t responded to other conservative care.

PRP Therapy uses a concentrated sample of your own blood, rich in natural growth factors, to stimulate tissue repair and reduce chronic inflammation. Studies show it offers longer-lasting relief than steroid injections, especially in stubborn heel pain cases. Corti‑Ozone®, a blend of corticosteroids and ozone, enhances healing by delivering anti-inflammatory relief along with improved oxygenation making it a strong option when steroids alone haven't been effective.

FAQ's About Injection Therapies

How do PRP and Corti‑Ozone® compare to cortisone injections?
Steroids offer fast, short-term relief—but effects often fade by six months and can weaken tissue. PRP tends to deliver longer-lasting improvement, while Corti‑Ozone adds an oxygen-based healing boost.

Is it painful?
PRP injections can be uncomfortable and sometimes painful—especially in areas like the heel. Patients often describe it as intense and may need help walking immediately after. Corti‑Ozone is typically better tolerated.

How soon will I notice improvement?
Steroid effects are quicker but short lived. PRP benefits usually appear around 3 months, with peak results at 6 to 12 months.

Are there risks or side effects?
PRP is low-risk—it’s your own blood. Corti‑Ozone may still carry some steroid-related risks. Injection site discomfort or temporary tenderness is common; serious complications are rare.

Does insurance cover these injections?
Coverage varies by plan and treatment type. Our team will verify your benefits and help with billing or prior authorization as needed.
