I had my GP inject it into my wrist ( tendonitis).
He made a point of pushing my medial nerve to one side so he didn't hit it.

Hurt like buggery for a few hours and then subsided.

However, the next day it became clear that the **** hadn't infact moved the medial nerve out the way enough and had actually hit it.

Cue an arm swollen 3 times it's normal size, unable to move it and couldn't bear anything heavier than tissue paper on it!

Trip to the NHS walk-in centre as it was a Saturday.....


4 courses of acupuncture later it seems to be cured

I had one in my shoulder. It worked well and the injection was not all that bad either.

If footballers (aka big girl's blouses) can handle it, then anyone can.

Suck it up and move along - nothing to see here

Just had a cortisone injection into my elbow, wasnt as bad as I expected but I have felt better things, failing this it's Physio, failing that it's in for an op.
