Hey, I haven't posted in a while and before you read DON"T WORRY, I am NOT asking for a doctor/medical advice. However, I am looking for resources (articles) or your opinions. So here goes.
*this is for a school research paper*
I have to do a school research paper about the use of cortisone injections in athletes, and I was looking for your opinions and if you have an articles, preferably unbiased. My research will be on the pros and the cons and weather it is worth fighting through the pain, or damaging the tissue but being pain free. My research will also include if it is dangerous to use cortisone because it could make an injury worse, but you would still get to particiapate.
I know this problem comes up often in gymnastics, especially with many athletes being young (make it or break it ) My paper is going to cover all sports and any information you have is helpful.
so basically: do you know any articles or websites with unbiased information reguarding cortisone injections in athletes.
