A member asked:
Doctors, do you think i can die from a cortisone injection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: You possibly could die from a cortisone injection if you are truly allergic to cortisone and given a sufficient dose, but death related to a single cortisone injection for a healthy person with no known allergy to cortisone would be highly unlikely.
