remains on the bicipital groove. The needle is inserted in
the middle of the affected part (proximal or distal depending on the
localising sings), just lateral of the palpating thumb, and directed towards
the bone. The tendon is only a few
mm. thick so the bone is reached immediately after tendinous resistance is
felt. The infiltration is done
at bony contact, along a line over about 1.5 cm so as to include the whole
lesion. |
