Cortisone shots worked for me in the beginning. But, after a few years, the effectiveness was not even lasting a month. That is when I knew I was tired of the pain and did not want to live with my knee pain any longer. I had a left TKR last year, and the pain is gone. Thank you for a very informative video. P.S. - your knee book was such a great help to me! 😊
What a fantastic video! My surgeon's PA gave me my cortisone shot and I was the anxious little baby, and afterwards I was like, did you already do it?? I ended up getting a knee replacement though and so glad, it was the best decision I ever made!
I had s RTKR in June, 2024. I'm actually really starting to feel much better pain- wise now and have great ROM, although there is still some stiffness at times. The pain is very slight now but i swore I'd never do this again, it was one of the worst pain i ever felt. I had a cortisone shot in the Left knee mid October that really helped with the pain tremendously. S side effect i experienced was that my BP readings spiked ( as they did with celebrex taken for a month post -op as ordered). My meds had to be adjusted as needed after this. My cardiologist said i was sensitive to the cortisone and if I needed to get it again at some point to be aware of this so i could plan ahead. I know this is a long post but it may be helpful to someone else. Thanks for all your helpful videos and your book too!😊
Thank you for this great video Dr Rosen. Having a partial knee replacement 2 years ago, sometimes I feel mild pain or swelling on my knee. Is it possible to get a cortisone or ketorolac injection?
Have you had a cortisone shot? Was it helpful? Was it painful?
