In this episode, Jillian and Jide discuss using cortisone shots for pain relief and why it may not be the best option. They highlight the limitations and risks of cortisone, such as masking the underlying problem and weakening tissues. They also introduce shockwave therapy as an alternative that promotes tissue healing and regeneration. They emphasize the importance of trying other interventions before resorting to cortisone and the long-term benefits of shockwave therapy. The conversation includes personal anecdotes and case studies to illustrate the potential consequences of cortisone shots.

Takeaways

• Cortisone shots may provide short-term pain relief but do not address the underlying problem and can weaken tissues.
