After How Long Does Cortisone Injection Take Effect?
Had my 3rd cortisone shot 2 days ago not much relief, seems like the first shots worked great on my knee within a day, Am I getting worse or will it kick in the next couple days. Iv got to move , getting ready for winter, fire wood etc. What do you think ? Thank you Jacky
