Is A Steroid Shot Worth The Trouble?
I have a new boil. They seem to migrate and now colonize at the top of my ass crack. Anyway, got one that's pretty tender and large. Have only seen my new dermatologist once but she said I could come in to have an injection done if I get a bad one. My thoughts are, going to see a doc is a pain in the butt, but so is this. What are anyone else's experience for this sort of treatment if I decide to have it done?
I've had two abscess on my tail bone and had to get them lanced and packed for it to heal from the inside out. Had one in 2010 and one in 2013. I've haven't had it return in that area since, knock on wood.
Corticosteroid injections can be beneficial for treating Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) by reducing inflammation and improving symptoms. However, they come with potential side effects, especially with long-term use, such as:
- Increased susceptibility to infection
- Weight gain
- Vision changes
- High blood sugar
- Fluid Show Full Answer
They worked for 2 days I would feel great then just back to pain
The shots never works for me and they just ended up having to open it🤦🏾♀️
I’ve had steroid shots in my armpit, groin area and inner thighs. I could barely walk into the appointment and after the shots I felt like a new woman...I hadn’t seen my skin that clear in YEARS...I did have some pain after the injections but I was able to walk out the appointment with very little pain...I’d say in 2 days everywhere she injected was smooth skin.
