What Is The Safe Medication For Pain During Pregnancy,and Is Cortisol Injection A Safer Choice?
Hi I am 13 weeks pregnant and bursitis in my shoulder has flared up again. I have been getting it off and on for the last 20 years since I was 15. It is quite bad this time and I am wondering what pain relief is safe for me to take. I have had a cortisol injection before and also wonder if that would be safe. Regards Melissa
