What is a corticosteroid injection?
Corticosteroid (or ‘cortisone’) is a powerful anti-inflammatory medicine that can be directly administered into the inflamed tissues causing your pain. It is safer than taking anti-inflammatories by mouth. It is not the same as the illegal steroids sometimes taken by bodybuilders and athletes.
What are the benefits?
Cortisone can help relieve pain, stiffness and swelling within 7-10 days of an injection. This is important for patients that are struggling to engage in rehabilitation due to high pain levels. Cortisone injections can also be very useful to help diagnose the cause of your pain.
