What Causes Burst After Cortisone Shot In Knee?
Hello. Today I had a cortisone shot in my knee. No padding left..it is bone on bone. At the site of the shot, I am experiencing short bursts of stinging, very similar to the feeling when receiving the nerve simulator in therapy. Is this normal? I have had a knee replacement in my right leg and received several shots prior to surgery with no problems.

If no padding left, then stinging feeling is common. Ideally before knees are so damaged, every effort should have been done to not let it ruin further by doing yogic exercises etc
But now the damage is already done. Your ortho surgeon is the best guide. However if any problem is not seted in future, please consult for Ayurveda's inputs and tips to give support to you.
Wish you early recovery.
