Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I've recieved 2 coritsone shots in my hips so far and the day after, I am in excrusiating pain for like 2 or 3 days. Then the pain starts to subside. But this rebound pain as they call it is absolutely aweful. The last time i took 2 5/500 mg. Vicodins every 6 to 8 hours for the pain and it didn't even make a dent. I would also ice it. Is there anything i can take to make a dent in the pain so i can function? I get another round of the shots this afternoon and i almost don't even want it cause i know i'm gonna be in so much pain the next day and will miss work for a couple days. I also get a fever wich the doc says is normal with the rebound pain. It is not very pleasent. :(
