Have you noticed a soft, moveable lump under your skin? It could be a lipoma – a benign fatty growth that forms between the skin and muscle. While harmless, some lipomas can become uncomfortable or grow larger over time.

🔬 What causes them?
Lipomas are made of slow-growing fat cells and often run in families. They can appear anywhere on the body, but are most common on the shoulders, arms, back, and thighs.

💉 Do they need to be removed?
Lipomas don’t require treatment, but some people choose to have them removed if they become painful, unsightly, or start growing. Look no further for minimally invasive removal with expert care and minimal scarring.

🔍 Fibrous Papules – What Are They? 💡✨

Noticed a small, firm bump on your nose that won’t go away? It could be a fibrous papule – a harmless but persistent skin growth that commonly appears on the face, especially the nose.

🔬 What causes them?
Fibrous papules are benign skin lesions made of excess collagen and blood vessels. They usually develop in adulthood and don’t change much over time. Unlike acne, they don’t respond to typical skincare treatments.

💉 Can they be removed?
Absolutely! While fibrous papules don’t pose a health risk, many people choose to remove them for cosmetic reasons. We offer quick and effective minor skin surgery to remove these bumps with minimal downtime.

The picture is directly after removal. The mark will fade over several weeks and return to normal skin colour.

Pilar Cysts – What You Need to Know! 🏥💡

Ever noticed a firm, smooth lump on your scalp? It could be a pilar cyst – a common, benign growth that forms around hair follicles. These cysts are usually painless but can become bothersome if they grow larger or get inflamed.

🔬 What causes them?
Pilar cysts develop when keratin (a protein in skin and hair) gets trapped under the surface. They often run in families and are more common in adults, especially women.

💉 Do they need treatment?
While they are harmless, some people choose to have them removed for comfort or cosmetic reasons. At Skin Joint Clinic, we offer quick removal with minimal pain and scarring by a doctor skilled in aesthetics.

🌟 Exciting Announcement! 🌟 We're teaming up with Better Body Fitness to offer our patients a 10% discount on fitness memberships! 🏋️‍♂️💉

At The Skin and Joint Injection, we're passionate about holistic health, especially when it comes to managing arthritis pain. Did you know that regular exercise can be a game-changer in reducing joint discomfort? 💪💊

Here's how:

1. **Improved Joint Flexibility**: Exercise helps maintain and improve joint flexibility, making movement easier and less painful. Stretching exercises, in particular, can increase your range of motion, allowing you to perform daily activities with greater ease.

2. **Strengthening Muscles**: Strong muscles provide better support to your joints, reducing stress and wear. By incorporating resistance training into your routine, you can strengthen the muscles around your affected joints, providing them with added stability and protection.

3. **Reduced Inflammation**: Physical activity triggers the release of endorphins, which act as natural painkillers and mood boosters. Additionally, regular exercise helps reduce inflammation throughout the body, including in the joints affected by arthritis, leading to less pain and swelling.

4. **Weight Management**: Maintaining a healthy weight is essential for managing arthritis, as excess weight puts added strain on your joints. Exercise, combined with a balanced diet, can help you achieve and maintain a healthy weight, reducing the burden on your joints and minimizing pain.

We understand that stepping into a gym can be daunting for some. That's why Better Body Fitness provides a welcoming and supportive environment for individuals of all fitness levels. Their expert trainers will guide you every step of the way, ensuring a comfortable and empowering experience.

Don't let arthritis hold you back from living your best life! Contact us to learn more about how you can take advantage of this exclusive discount and start your journey to improved joint health today.

Suffering from greater trochanteric pain syndrome, also known as trochanteric bursitis, can be a literal pain in the hip. But don't worry, we've got you covered with five exercises that can help alleviate discomfort:

Iliotibial (IT) Band Stretch: Stand and cross your legs, with the affected leg behind the other. Lean to the opposite side until you feel a stretch along the outer thigh. Hold for 30 seconds and repeat.

Hip Bridges: Lie on your back with knees bent and feet flat. Lift your hips to form a straight line from knees to shoulders. Hold for a few seconds, then lower slowly.

Clamshells: Lie on your side with knees bent at a 90-degree angle. Keeping feet together, raise your top knee as high as you can without shifting your hips. Repeat for several reps.

Standing Hip Abduction: Stand with your side facing a wall for support. Lift your leg sideways, away from your body, keeping your back straight. Lower back down for one rep.

Wall Squats: Stand with your back against a wall, feet shoulder-width apart. Lower into a squat position and hold, then rise back up.

Consistency is key, so incorporate these into your daily routine for best results, and as always, consult your healthcare provider before starting any new exercise regimen!

12/11/2023

Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS), commonly known as trochanteric bursitis, is a condition that causes persistent pain on the outer side of the hip. GTPS was traditionally more commonly known as hip/trochanteric bursitis as it was thought that pain was mainly related to inflammation of the bursa (fluid-filled sac that cushions between bone and tendons). Research has shown that pain in this area is due to small (and often repetitive) injuries to the gluteal (buttock)muscles and tendons (usually gluteus minimus and gluteus medius). This can cause what is called gluteal tendinopathy.

But what can cause this however? Lets take a look:

Repetitive Stress: Activities like running or cycling can put repetitive pressure on the bursa, leading to irritation.

Acute Injury: A direct impact to the hip area, such as a fall, can trigger the condition.

Postural Issues: Poor posture and conditions that affect the way you walk may place extra stress on the bursa. Crossing your legs, sitting for long periods.

Weakness of the muscles supporting your hip.

Being overweight and or being inactive.

Other Health Conditions: Rheumatoid arthritis and gout can also predispose individuals to develop GTPS.

Remember, it's important to get a correct diagnosis from a healthcare professional. If you're experiencing hip pain, come talk to us to explore your treatment options.

Are you keeping an eye on your moles? It's essential to know the signs of a potentially cancerous mole for early detection and treatment. Here's a quick guide using the ABCDE method:

Asymmetry: If you draw a line through the middle of the mole, the two halves should match. If they don't, it's asymmetrical, a warning sign.

Border: Look for edges that are irregular, scalloped, or poorly defined.

Color: A variety of colors is another warning signal. Multiple shades of tan, brown, black, and sometimes white, red, or blue can appear.

Diameter: Melanomas are usually larger than 6mm (the size of a pencil eraser) when diagnosed, but they can be smaller.

Evolving: Any change in size, shape, color, elevation, or another trait, or any new symptom such as bleeding, itching, or crusting, points to danger.

Remember, if your mole ticks any of these boxes, it's time to see your doctor.
