I found that the cortisone shot and the Euflexxa are equally painful. Some people have almost no pain from the injection at all, I was one of the "lucky" 11% who experienced a couple days of pain.

For my second injection, the guy mixed a little lidocaine in, which made it numb for a couple hours. I liked that much better!
