Joint aspiration is a procedure that sucks fluid from your knee, hip, shoulder, or other joints to help relieve pain and let you move more easily. Sometimes your doctor might inject medicine after the extra fluid is gone. The most common ones are anti-inflammatory corticosteroids.

The aspiration procedure can be done on any of these locations:

  • Ankle

  • Elbow

  • Foot

  • Hand

  • Knee

  • Shoulder

  • Wrist
