Has anyone had a cortisone shot in their foot for a flareup and has it been successful? Any side effects? How soon till it feels better? Thank you!

No side effects works within a hour or so. After the injections go on a anti inflammation coarse and cortisone tablets.
Works like a bomb. Wishing you well xxx

Here is another idea for feet and hand pain, for feet try "foot angel" compression foot sleeve & for hands try Copper Hands compression gloves. I've used many different brands and these seem to be the best. I can even sleep in the feet sleeves as the pain is continuously reduced so I sleep. Hope these ideas help.
