Question Cortisone Injection

Hey Everybody,

Quick question:

I received a cortisone injection in my shoulder today for the treatment of impingement syndrome. How long should I wait before lifting again? The nurse/medical assistant said I could work out as early as today, but that sounds a bit risky. What is the general protocol that most docs recommend?

Thanks,
C10

Thanks for the link, Fris.

It's been about three days and I'm still quite sore. Anything I can do to help relieve the pain or should I just leave it alone?
