Q: How often do doctors give cortisone injections to a patient? A: We try to limit the injection to one every three months for any single joint, but also we like to limit it to a total of six injections a year for the whole body. We know that the cortisone can sometimes weaken or suppress the immune system and, in diabetics, it raises blood sugar.
After your cortisone shot, your doctor might ask that you: 1  Protect the injection area for a day or two. For instance, if you received a cortisone shot in your shoulder, avoid heavy lifting. 2  Apply ice to the injection site as needed to relieve pain. Don't use heating pads.
