Good Evening,
Thanks for given information,According to your shoulder pain history,
Your doctor injected cortisone,sometimes doctor use this injection to relief pain in shoulder or for inflammation,due to tendinitis or bursitis,around the rotator cough,
The common side effects of this injection,Pain and swelling remains 2 to 3 days,
I suggest you can take anti inflammatory drug to relief pain Naproxen 250mg
also apply ICE 15 to 20 minutes may helpful
Also advise you kindly consult with your Doctor
Thanks for consult,
