A member asked:

How can i quickly get a cortisone shot in san diego for chronic lower back pain? had one before. scripps wants me to wait 6 weeks for the shot.

Standards: Presumably, you are describing an epidural steroid injection, which may well control symptoms if you have a disc rupture compressing a nerve root. But, the standard is not to exceed three such injections yearly. So, might propose that it is best to delay as you have been advised.
