    injections of anti-inflammatory steroids to reduce swelling and pain

    Corticosteroid injections, also known as steroid injections or cortisone shots, are medical treatments that deliver corticosteroids directly into inflamed or affected areas of the body. These injections are commonly used to reduce inflammation and suppress the immune system, making them effective for conditions like alopecia areata, arthritis, and various inflammatory disorders. The corticosteroids help to decrease swelling, redness, and pain, providing relief and promoting healing.
