Hi new to this forum. I just wanted to ask how many shots to your hip can be too many. I've had 4 this year and in a month will have my last shot for the year. I'm wondering has anyone else had more shots? And how do you feel.
I don't think drs can give more than one shot every three or four months. I have only had two in one year.
Thank for your help. My Dr told me everything is fine spacing out the hip injections. I sometimes worry, because not all doctors seem to care, there just looking for the money. But I was just curious .
Hi I was told no more than two in a year . Hope yours works I'm still in bad pain for bursitis but I'm not having those injections any more they made pain worse, good luck x
Hi paty, sorry to hear about your hip pain. I get them every months. They help a lot. I have a torn labrum and the ball of hip is not round. I had a 3T MRI which supposedly shows more damage then a regular MRI. I was told I will need a hip replacement and I'm only 57. I work for post office, so I walk, and climb stairs all day. It hurts jumping out of truck all day long. So those shots really work. But how much is too much? And how many years can I drag it out? Just not ready to go to surgery.
