Subject: cortisone/steroid and my knee

Apparently I have jumpers knee.
“Do you do a lot of jumping, like basketball?”
“yeah, just after my 5am swim and before the marathon”
or housemaids knee “Umm I’m not real big on housework”
anyway been referred for a US guided corticosteroid injection into L prepatellar
question – can I try a topical corto/steroid first or is it too far behind the knee to get in. (Dr said it was behind the kneecap)
thanks

Topical won’t work.

And on that note, I’d better call WNDC.
