Musculoskeletal Medicine

Near Ipswich

Musculoskeletal Medicine (MSK Medicine) is a specialised medical field dealing with the diagnosis and treatment of problems arising from the musculoskeletal system. This includes injuries and diseases affecting the muscles, bones and joints of the limbs and spine. MSK doctors treat these conditions without surgical intervention. They are medical doctors who often hold additional qualifications in General Practice and Sport & Exercise Medicine. These doctors are experts at diagnosis and perform fluoroscopic x-ray and ultrasound guided pain-relieving injections for acute and chronic conditions including arthritis and sports injuries.

Bupa Health Clinics have acquired Blackberry Clinic.

Musculoskeletal Medicine Treatments

Our Musculoskeletal Medicine and Sport & Exercise Medicine Doctors offer a variety of treatments following a thorough consultation and assessment of the musculoskeletal system. They often refer patients for manual therapy with physios, osteopaths and chiropractors but offer steroid joint injections, hyaluronic acid injections, prolotherapy, PRP (platelet rich plasma), trigger point injections and other treatments for stubborn cases.

They perform pain relieving injections for severe back pain, such as caudal epidurals, prolotherapy, radiofrequency denervation and nerve root block injections. See below for a full range of interventional treatments available. They work closely with the local radiologists and it is possible to have an MRI and report within 48 hours depending on location and availability.
