After injection, corticosteroids work to reduce inflammation (heat, redness, swelling, & pain) in and around the joint. As a result you should feel less pain, swelling, stiffness and warmth and be able to function a little easier.ost injections typically take 24-48 hours to take full effect. If local anesthetic was given with the steroid injection, you may feel improvement relatively quickly. The duration of improvement varies.
But if your shoulder is still weak after the injection of anesthetic, the problem is probably a rotator cuff tear. Corticosteroid injections may help relieve pain and inflammation in the shoulder due to tendinitis or bursitis in or around the rotator cuff.fter the anesthetic wears off (usually 4 to 6 hours after the shot), you are likely to have discomfort for a few days. The corticosteroid will take effect and begin to relieve inflammation and pain after 1 to 2 days.
