Do cortisone shots make you sensitive to sun?

Cortisone shots can potentially increase your sensitivity to the sun due to their immunosuppressive effects, which may affect how your skin responds to UV exposure. Additionally, some people may experience skin thinning or changes in pigmentation in the area where the shot was administered, making that skin more susceptible to sunburn. It's advisable to protect the treated area from direct sunlight and use sunscreen as a precaution. Always consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
