Ever get an injection in the feet?
IT FUCKING HURTS!!!!

I have really bad rashes on the top and side of my feet. Doctor says it's dermatitis.

Today he gave me AT LEAST 10 injections of cortisone.

1. Ouch, poor you!
Cortisone just freaking hurts anywhere they inject it. I don't know what it is about that stuff, but man... shudder.

Hope you feel better soon! :hug:

19. a coworker told me that it hurts so much
because there is no fat on the feet.

Or rather very little.

16. I had some for a bad Achilles tendon a number of years ago.
They hurt like hell. My doctor had his nurse hold my foot down every time. First time I asked "why?". He said I'd thank him for it. I did.

Hope it helps.

17. Not exactly....
I have one tattoo on each foot, though, does that count for anything?

:hug: Sorry you're itching!

18. Yeah well, one time I broke my...
baby toe.....and the doctor was gonna set it by taping it to the next toe...
But, first he had to give me an injection right in my baby toe so he could straighten it out a bit...
That shot he gave me hurt more than the broken toe.
