Interesting thread as I started feeling discomfort in my left shoulder a couple of months ago. It started to become more and more painful and about 3 weeks ago it got too bad to play golf. I finally went to the doctor last Friday and his diagnosis was either bursitis or tendinitis. He gave me a shot of cortisone in the shoulder last Friday. He said at the time I could be playing the next day. Well, it has been 5 days now and I am still experiencing some discomfort but not like it was before. I have a tee time for Friday so we will see if I am actually going to play or just go out and chip and putt. Anybody have any experience with cortisone shots in the shoulder and how long it took afterwards for the pain to completely go away ?
