Can My Sore Throat Be The Effect Of Cortisone Injection?I M Also Under Remicade For Crohn S Disease.

I received a cortisone injection in my left shoulder this afternoon. This evening I have developed a sore throat. Could the sore throat be in response to the cortisone? I am also taking insurance and getting Remicade infusions for Crohn s disease. My most recent infusion was this last Friday.
