Post-TKR Piriformis Syndrome - Cortisone Shot?

Thank you....I was told one time I had
sacroillitis and have issues with Nsaids. I think I did this lifting a heavy bag into the trash (50-70lbs?). Right now the pain I mostly in my right butt cheek but it can radiate behind the right thigh. It helps sitting on a roller and rolling it. 4th day into methylprednisone and isn't helping. The shot in my bursa close to the piriformis did help like 60% and it isn't shooting pain anymore but it does hurt at times when I move it just right. I'm seeing a sports medicine guy and I love how he uses a portable ultrasound machine to look at things. He may give me another shot this next week when I go back as it's not resolved completely.
