Have you had a cortisone injection into a joint before?

Had 3 in various sections of my spine. Helped a lot.



It's gonna hurt like hell for a few days.


I hear sending out nudes eases the pain.

I've had them in my lower lumbar and besides the small amount of soreness/light bruising around the injection spot I don't remember it hurting any more or any less than before the injections.

Yep. You have a tear.

Precursor to surgery...

Thank you! I guess I should be grateful for the "numbing" agent or I probably would be at the er

Saint, frick getting one in my spine. That shot was one of the worst pains I've felt. Well I had an epidural but I was already out of it

That's great news. It's been hurting six weeks. I'm so over it


rsbd, don't put that on me

Had one in my rotator cuff on felt almost immediate relief. I was feeling better before I left the office.

I had one in the bursa sack in my hip. It was a little sore afterwards, but not to where it bothered me as much as the joint pain itself. If yours is bothering you that much, I think I'd call tomorrow.

It took almost three weeks for it to work, but it did stop hurting for over a year. It's bothering me again now. I'm trying to make it until January when I have an appointment with my rheumatologist.

Everyone in the know knows she's just an advanced, lifelike cyborg designed by Kalunda to drive clicks from the pathetic saps that infest this place (present company included).

She doesn't feel real pain.


Hell of a rack on her though.

Could have gone a bit tighter when they designed the bottom.
