i  have been administered with tricort 40 inj. about 17 years  ago by an ortho surgeon for neck pain,which gave me instant relief.Now that I am 67 years old and would like to know whether the same treatment could be given for  a similar pain that transmits to upper right arm.Please suggest/advice
your initial pain could have been due to cervical spondylitis or disc related disease. this new pain may or may not be the same. I suggest you get yourself examined by an ortho or spine doctor and get the relevant X-rays and scans done before you think about injecting steroid.
