I had one in my shoulder. They had to try different sized needles, it was quite painful, and it helped very little.

I do know people who are greatly helped by them, though.

Dear God. I got cortisone first, Orthovisc after that. Same injection site and method, though. That is a special kind of pain. Hardly the worst in my life, but of a quality that made me want to vomit on the spot. Pointy things just don't belong that far into your body. In the knees, this was.

@likesnatural Just reread your answer. Tennis Elbow from playing baseball.
I broke my elbow from rollerblading backwards on an uneven sidewalk. Definitely not a funny bone.

It was many years ago . Didn’t last long maybe a month .
Careful with that stuff it will eat away at joints so in long run your worse off .

Knee and it took two days to do any good. Six months afterwards I had surgery

I have had that. Worse yet... I have had injections inside of the knee joint. So painful.

😌
5 in one wrist, just below my thumb, 4 in the other 😌

They hurt like hell but I've not needed them for 3 years. Ended up having surgery on one of my wrists.

They make you dizzy, from the pain, and the last one messed up my cycle. Other than that they just hurt.

I had one in my shoulder. It was very painful and did no good whatsoever.lol

I had tennis elbow from playing baseball as a teen. I almost passed out from the shot, but it did wonders.

I have loved but I don’t think I’ve been in love ever. Not from what people describe as being in love. I’m in love with my kid’s though, I know that.

I have had mixed success. Often it was the local anesthetic included that relieved the pain immediately.

My friend got them. The fix only seemed to be temporary though.

I've had to many to count... was / still is misery!

Many to knees and a few to a shoulder. Yes, they help for a while.

Into my hip and short term yes it did work
