How long does it take for a cortisone injection to become effective for pain?

In general, a cortisone injection may take 2 to 3 weeks to reach its maximum effectiveness in reducing pain. However, it is important to note that the goal of the treatment is not necessarily to completely eliminate pain, but rather to improve your ability to carry out daily activities and maintain or improve your level of function. It is recommended to consider physiotherapy in conjunction with cortisone injections for optimal results.
