Re: Cortizone Injections: Good or bad?

Posted by Marianne on 11/24/98

I had three cortizone injections in my left foot. They all hurt really bad. The first one resulted in a two month pain free period. Then in July my foot started to hurt again so my doctor have me two more shots - in a two week period. They did nothing to relieve my pain. So I then tried 12 sessions of physical threaphy which also did not work. I just had surgery and there seems to be improvement but this is my first week back to work after being out for five weeks. Time will tell. The shots don't really work in my opinion.
