How Can Cortisone (taken For Neuroma) Be Cleared From The System As It Is Giving A Painful Reaction?
I have myofascial back pain, neuropathic leg and foot pain, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue. I had a cortisone injection for my neuroma foot pain this week. I m having a painful reaction to it and want to know how I can clear this cortisone out of my system. (I see the doctor who gave me the injection on Thursday.) Thanks! Joan

Hi.Thanks for writing on HCM. Cortisone is a short acting drug and will be quickly cleared from body in less than half day & I suggest you to take analgesics to relieve your pain.
