I have had three steroid injections one in each knee and another in first knee injection. The injections did not work for me. There was no lasting pain relief. I had bone on bone in both knees and eventually had knee replacement surgery in both, a year apart. I was 69 when I had my first surgery and 70 for second surgery. Like you said no two knees are alike. My first surgery was a breeze but second surgery was a struggle to stay with therapy and remain positive. For both knees I did water therapy. I am a water baby and I believe this is what healed me, particularly with the second surgery. What a wonderful blessing to be able to walk for more than five minutes. I had my life back! Your two videos will provide accurate information to anyone thinking about any of these procedures.
I had injections on my neck huts a bit, but after on the next day I thought I was going to die . The headache , pain on my neck was out this world . I never will do this again
I have been taking steroid injections on both of my shoulders, Neck and Knees since 2006 and everything this Dr said I can confirm. I ended up getting Total R knee replacement back in 2014. Now both of my shoulders have tears on mjy rotator cuff and it hurt like hell. Still seeking for a good Orthopedic surgeon to explore my options. MTF.
Thank you for your great information. I had a cortisone shot 3 days ago and was almost going to write it off as not working but you have given me hope with the 3-5 days for it to begin to work. Fingers crossed!🤞🏼✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼
I'm a month in and the shots are still working great for my hands. I couldn't make a fist with either hand for a few years with a "trigger" left ring finger and it absolutely is like night and day. It didn't "cure" the trigger finger however, it's much better with no pain. I'd recommend cortisone shots for arthritic hands to anybody suffering from it, it works!!
That's great news! I had a couple of trigger fingers and got two injections for them recently. My doctor said that the effect of the shots should last about 2 months. What's your experience? It's been 4 months since your comment, are things back to how they were, or are you still getting relief?
@@karlint39 My hands are ok, both middle knuckles are back to stiff and sore but not unmanageable. Trigger finger-gone. At the six month mark I may make an appt. for a shot in each hand for the mid-knuckle problem. Worthwhile though. Good luck!
I’ve had steroid injections in my shoulder, lower back, hip, knee, foot (plantar fasciitis), and big toe…the shots helped…still had to have meniscus surgery on my knee but that was just to “clean out” the torn/frayed cartilage…
I think it’s more of a band-aid, to be honest. I’ve had one so far, and it did give some relief for hip bursitis. I also have back arthritis and compression in lumbar region. I had surgery about 27 years ago. I’m in pain a lot, but want to avoid another surgery. I’ve been swimming 3 days a week, it does seem to help. Cycling really irritated the hip flexors. Thanks for video.
I've had two injections in my left knee. No real pain, just a weird sensation of fullness. First shot worked well for 2-3 months, the second not at all. That's when I choose TKR.
Does it make the problem worse? My 1st injection was 3 months ago and it help greatly but now the pain is back and it feels worse than I remember. Was in my shoulder.
I am a javelin thrower and I have shoulder bursitis. If I have a steroid injection, will this heal my bursitis or will it just be a short term pain reliever?
i just got one going on 3rd day and i dont feel a done of difference yet have rsi and pretititve pressure from gaming injurined below pinky so far i regret getting the injection but will see how it goes on the comming days only day 2 1/2 for me
Yes, but not the same efficacy. I’ve had many patients take Medrol Dosepak instead of get the injection. Some people will see a temporary improvement in their knee pain when they do that in addition to other inflammatory conditions in their body. However, my anecdotal experience is, is that, it’s never a strong affect and does not last as long.
I got a PRP inj few months ago for my shoulder osteoarthritis (injured 40 years ago)I’m still waiting for a miracle to happen and is also expensive (most insurance don’t cover it)…
if i got one cortizone injection to tendon under pinky will i perminately damage healthy joint in pinky ? only had one shot on day 2/12 but im scared cuz i feel a slight pain in joint ajcent to tendon shot
What food will give after surgery,my mom had tomorrow,she is really scared,do u have any tips about food ,she is 64 ,we can do her massage after surgery only foot ?

This is the most balanced explanation for cortisone injections. Thankyou doctor.

@@nanduuu3754 The cortisone did not work on my knee pain but I do have arthritis in my knee too and I do not run at all.
Excellent presentation , it cleared up a lot of questions for me !
Excellent presentation! I would buy a used car from you!! LOL Just had the injection and am waiting for the improvement. Best of luck!

It ”works for some time”. Then next it will be operation time.
You got that right.

Very interesting, to me it seems with such limited sides it’s worth a go .
What’s the next step up ?
Nerve block ?
Talk about the side effects
Dr. Hurt
Doesn't 🤕 Hurt!!
Thank you sir
My last one last week caused me so much more pain than i had wount be having another
What about after 6 months of therapy, and you've gotten as far as you
can go?
This Doc know’s what’s up…
The side effects are often horrible.
Great..straight video
How long does the shot work?
I just had a lower back steriod injection should I go forward with another injection 7 days later in the thoraci area? Is it too soon?
Does it make the problem worse? My 1st injection was 3 months ago and it help greatly but now the pain is back and it feels worse than I remember. Was in my shoulder.
I am a javelin thrower and I have shoulder bursitis. If I have a steroid injection, will this heal my bursitis or will it just be a short term pain reliever?
I have injections in my back and they hurt like hell !
Do these injections work for alopecia too?
His name is Dr. Hurt.😂
Can I get an epidural injections for the next 20 years?
i just got one going on 3rd day and i dont feel a done of difference yet have rsi and pretititve pressure from gaming injurined below pinky so far i regret getting the injection but will see how it goes on the comming days only day 2 1/2 for me
Do cortisone tablets work the same way?
Yes, but not the same efficacy. I’ve had many patients take Medrol Dosepak instead of get the injection. Some people will see a temporary improvement in their knee pain when they do that in addition to other inflammatory conditions in their body. However, my anecdotal experience is, is that, it’s never a strong affect and does not last as long.
Why don't u prefer prp of steroid injections?
I got a PRP inj few months ago for my shoulder osteoarthritis (injured 40 years ago)I’m still waiting for a miracle to happen and is also expensive (most insurance don’t cover it)…
@@mikebasarabeanu9347 Maybe fasting and avoiding hi carbs can help you.
if i got one cortizone injection to tendon under pinky will i perminately damage healthy joint in pinky ? only had one shot on day 2/12 but im scared cuz i feel a slight pain in joint ajcent to tendon shot
Define work.
What food will give after surgery,my mom had tomorrow,she is really scared,do u have any tips about food ,she is 64 ,we can do her massage after surgery only foot ?
Maybe works avoiding all refined carbs ,refine sugars , only drink water and tea.
Doesn't answer questions. Suspicious.
It's a scam not going to work
Some work and some don't. Some doctors are good, and some not.
No makes it worse
They are a TEMPORARY fix
Sadly ,that's the truth.
