Re: New with Questions

Violet, Thank you for your response. Apparently, their goal is to treat with these injections that contain lidocaine and a steroid anti-inflammatory along with physical therapy and the medication suppositories. I do not think there is really an end game to any of this. The shots are extremely tempor...
