Iontophoresis for Dequevain's Tenosynovitis Wrist Pain with Dexamethasone

[@SarkisKlinik]

Hi, How deep the dexamethasone does penetrate into the tissue in iontophoresis? How many treatments are required? Can we use it in the treatment of knee or hip osteoarthritis or spinal disc herniation or degenerative spinal changes? Is this method same effective as intraarticular injections?Thanks

It only penetrates up to 1cm. Good for superficial tendon problems. Not good for joints.

@@AlignTherapyUtah Thanks. For suprapatellar bursitis is it effective? In Russia, they say after the procedure ends, the medication continues to penetrate deeper arriving the blood stream of that zone. What do you think about it ?

@@SarkisKlinik you could try it

What exercises to do after final treatment ?

[@AlignTherapyUtah]

Stretching and strengthening based on the deficits you have.
