A member asked:
Is it okay to repeat trigger point injections in 3 weeks? the doctor did the injections only on my right side. the injections have a steroid.

Should be fine: Based on your question, I assume the injections will be on your left side which should be fine. Three weeks for repeat cortisone injections in the same area would be too soon for me. Massage, physical therapy, topical anti inflammatories, or even oral medications could be other options. Good luck.
