Inject betamethasone by sonography
Use 5/8 in medical needles inject betamethasone 7mg (1ml) in distal wrist crease by sonography- guided. Entering skin with 30 degrees from the ulnar side of palmaris longus tandon. Changing direction of injection to prevent median nerve injury if patients feel numbness or pain in hand.
betamethasone
Inject betamethasone on the wrist for patient with carpal tunnel syndrome with sonography- guided, directly.
