General discussion / Cortisone Injection
July 25, 2019, 05:25:35 PM
Looking for some optimism I suppose - I hurt my shoulder last year, went to doctors in new year, given anti-inflammatory tablets - did nothing, went back said I needed an ultrasound but in meantime physio could help. Have private health so did 6 physio sessions to no avail - physio said needed an Cortisone injection, saw consultant (who literally just agreed with physio but needed his referral for injection).  Got ultrasound guided steroid injection start of April and continued 2 weeks later with physio - after another 8 session nothing changed - recommended second injection, went through same procedure got second ultrasound guided steroid injection start of July and my arm appears to have got worse since, first time nothing changed no relief no additional pain, this one pain increased for few days then settled.  Due to see physio again next week, don't want to get another injection - not sure they doing anything.  Has anyone ever had one of these injections before - did they work and if so how long was it before you saw some results.  I have had this since Christmas!
