In which spot on your foot do they inject the cortisone shot?
Asked 4 years ago
I am scheduled to get a cortisone shot to help with foot pain, but I have very ticklish feet. This is especially true for the undersides of my feet. Whereabouts on your foot do they give you your injection? I want to be prepared.

Cortisone shot injection site depends with the type of condition being managed. The most common site is usually the joint i.e. ankle and MTP joints. Some doctors my inject the PF from the inner (medial) side of the heel, instead of directly underneath. This helps to avoid pain and injury at the heel's fat pad.
