Flushing after a cortisone shot can occur as a side effect, typically due to the cortisone's effects on blood vessels, leading to increased blood flow in certain areas. This flushing may be temporary and usually subsides within a few hours or days. If the flushing is persistent or accompanied by other concerning symptoms, it's advisable to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

Why does cortisone shot cause facial flushing?
Cortisone shots can cause facial flushing due to the drug's effects on blood vessels. Cortisone, a corticosteroid, can lead to vasodilation, which increases blood flow to the skin, resulting in a flushed appearance. Additionally, the body's response to the injection may trigger a temporary inflammatory reaction, further contributing to the flushing. This side effect is typically short-lived and resolves as the body adjusts to the medication.
