Steroid Injection

[Solar]

My chap was injected with steroid into his coffin joint on Friday.
He has a bony spur above the navicular bursa and some arthritic changes.

I haven't really seen much of a difference in him - am I being too impatient, does anyone know how long steroid injections take before any improvement is noticed?

Thanks

I thought cortisone worked immediately and they have a painkilling and anti inflammatory action although I believe that it can take up to a fortnight until you can see complete benefits if that makes sense.
