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:
Thanks everybody. All helpful advice.
I think I will push for an MRI when I go for the shot.
I have a very high pain tolerance (was walking around
the night of all 4 C-Sections, etc.), so it could very well
be torn and I am not aware of it.
My hubby mentioned that these shots are painful.
I guess I'll shoot for getting back in the water next Monday
as I'm supposed to get the shot this week.
Again, thanks all.
Keep us posted.
