Re: Not sure what to do !!!
Hi @Shaz51
I have had cortisone injections into my shoulder joint to treat a frozen shoulder, some years back now.
It should be noted that cortisone injections are not a pain killer as such. What it does is to reduce inflamation. And that in turn, decreases the pain.
But in my personal experience the injections do have a fairly quick effect. My recollection was considerable relief by the next day.
But this would depend on what is being treated, and the individual's personal anti inflamatory response.

Re: Not sure what to do !!!
@Shaz51, Hubby had a course of three cortisone injections for an injured shoulder. It wasn't an instant fix, but it sort of prompted his body to kick into healing mode. Not a complete recovery, but better than it was previously. The injections themselves weren't painful.

Re: Not sure what to do !!!
Hi @Shaz51 I have had Cortisone injections in my Knee (for Bursitis).
I've had Cortisone injections in my Left Shoulder, for Bursitis.
Pain did not reduce immediately - but started to feel less painful, a few days later.
The pain in my left Shoulder (Bursitis) 2 & 1/2 years ago was Severe.
I could not sleep any night, for several weeks - Which caused Sleep Deprivation, & caused other problems.
Sometimes a Cortisone injection is not enough - Several Cortisone injection are sometimes needed, over a few weeks or months.
For my Knee, they 1st had to Syringe out all the Fluid (before Cortisone injecton) - As there was a huge bag of fluid (the size of a Baseball) on my knee.
I hope this helps your Mum.
