Cortisone shot advice

I know that there are threads on here already about shoulder injury and Cortisone shots but I don't have time to look for them. I have decided to get a Cortisone shot this week for bicep tendonitis. My question is: Can I swim then? My fear is that if I do I might tear it and do further damage. However, I am also thinking that if the shot works, the inflammation will go down and I won't hurt it. Any advice and/or experience is appreciated. :agree:

  • I had one in my shoulder a few years ago. The next day was too sore to swim (or move much) but after that, I was good to go. It pretty much healed my tendonitis and bursitis. It comes back occasionally but not nearly as bad as before. Good luck. I really hope it helps you as well.
