cortisone shot(please help)

[HighIntensity]

took one in the shoulder tday, for a bad rotator cuff

whos had one, did it help, can I finally do incline presses again?

Also can I lift tday? Don't want to miss a lift, cycleing

I've had a bunch. They feel good right after you get one...then about three hours later they hurt like shit, and then about 24 hours after that they start to feel good again. They usually help, but only for a short while. The're really just a band-aid for some larger ortho injury. My guess is no...you can't hit upper-body today.

monkeyballs hit the nail on the head

The shots are catabolic but you probably need it. Fuck the cycle bro, if you fuck your shoulder up and don't let it heal right you will be fucked for life. That means "ALL CYCLES". Give up on this one and listen to your doc.

Been there, done that...

Close the cycle out and let the shoulder heal.
Light workouts for 6 weeks easy.. now don't
cheat legs, arms, etc.
My cuff only bothered me on chest movements.

Good luck.

Had a couple done on my knee. Felt great right after he did it but by the time I got to my car, it was hurting again. Surgery was the only solution

thanks for the advice guys

First I hurt the shoulder 2 and a half months ago, and have lifted ever since. It has gotten better, not worse. Even did I heavy 1-test 10 week cycle and lifted insane weight without much pain.

Killing my fina cycle now would cost me $$$...So im going to lift through it, im a Personal Trainer so I know what to stay away from.

Just wanted to know why its hurts so damn much after the shot
