What Causes Severe Headache After Receiving Cortisone In The Knee?
I got a cortisone shot in my knee, not my first one. Afterwards the knee stopped hurting but I had a very painful headache all night. Is this a common side effect, or just a headache from something else? Next time advise the contributor of a question that there will be a charge for the answer, thanks for wasting my time.
