I’ve heard that repeated cortisone shots can damage muscles or ligaments but I’ve never had them. Ask the people at the pain clinic about the side effects AND do a little research on your own. There are online sites like this one and WebMD and others that have info, not just opinion.

I've been told that long term use of steroids isn't recommended because it can cause damage to that joint. In my experience, it's affects lessened after each injection to the point that it didn't help at all.
