Joint pain is a fairly common complaint and accurately identifying fluid (or lack thereof) can be difficult and frustrating without POCUS! In this video I show you how to identify joint effusions (including shoulder, knee and hip effusions) and how to use ultrasound to accurately stick a needle in it to either drain that fluid or to aspirate it. (Sorry about the audio quality on the intro/outro, I’m working with some new equipment and also it was beautiful outside ☺)
