Are you talking about a cortisone injection?
If you are talking about a cortisone injection - I had one in my shoulder due to arthritis and rotator cuff problems.
They numb the area before they give the shot and it did not hurt.
Sometimes, after a cortisone shot, you can get what they call a 'cortisone flare' which the pain seems to increase a little for a day or so BUT then the pain gradually goes away over a week and as the weeks go on the pain gradually goes away.
However, each person is different - with their reaction and results of the injection.
