i am not a climber but I had a pulley injury that didn't really go away until I got cortisone to kill the inflammation it was causing. But repeated cortisone shots is supposed to be bad for connective tissue.
- dillondoyle 5y agoThat's what my actual Dr hand surgeon said. I'm getting an MRI in a few weeks, very very unlikely i have a full tear but I want to see if we can find something 'medium serious' that explains why I can't improve much with a year of PT.
- LegitShady 5y agowell i can tell you mine healed after cortisone and I managed to not need surgery. But no matter how much PT/exercise/stretching I did up until the cortisone, nothing helped. Within a few months of cortisone it felt great and didn't have mobility issues (I had scar tissue buildup that was cuasing trigger finger too) and now a year and a bit later its 100% functional with no pain and full mobility/range. worth a try.
