Can knee replacement get a cortisone shot?
I have often heard about cortisone injections as an alternative to knee replacement but it is un heard of to have injection after the knee replacement. What is the logic behind it? Usually injections are taken to subside the pain that arise from contact of arthritic articular surfaces of knee bones. But when knee replacement is already done I do not see a reason for cortisone injection. At the same time if there is sudden severe pain in your knee after replacement surgery doctor might give you a shot of knee injection. Another possibility is if you have partial knee replacement and non operated compartment of your knee joint troubling you. Hope it helps.

How often can you have your knee drained?
No. I have a significant fear of needles and had my knee drained of fluid followed by a cortisone injection. The doctor used a freeze/numbing spray on my knee topically and then injected the knee with some type of anesthetic. The only minor pain I felt was the injection for the anesthetic. I did not feel any pain while the fluid was being drained or the cortisone shot administered.
