Hi @cindymattern, sorry you are dealing with so many frustrating symptoms after your TKR. I'd like to invite @kmacky and @jnoronha who have discussed cortisone injections before and may be able to speak on their effectiveness overall.

@cindymattern, did your provider suggest or a cortisone shot or is this something you want to learn more about to ask your provider about? Is your pain always there, or is it specifically related to when you use your knee during and after activity?

I am wanting to ask my provider about it as it helped so much prior to my knee surgery. It always is sore however it gets really bad the more active I get and the more I do my PT exercises. By afternoon/evening it hurts really bad to where I can't bend my knee at all without any pain and it wakes me sleeping. I want to know of others experience getting a cortisone shot.
