I am a dentist, I had a cortisone injection in my wrist and it is still sore

"After reading your website, I am so regretful that I got a cortisone shot yesterday on my wrist for my acute sprain 5 weeks ago. The pain was not bad to begin with. The doctor noticed a little swelling, so he gave me a shot without informing me of the side effects. I didn't know that the shot is so bad. What can I do now to reverse its effect? Can you help me please. I don't want to have permanent damage on my wrist since I am a dentist. My hand is my livelyhood. Please help."
A week later....

"I still have pain on my wrist. It seems like it is getting worse after the shot. What can I do? I think the cortisone shot retards the healing and make matter worse. Also because I have to use left hand all the time right now, my left wrist start hurting as well. Anything I can do to recover?"
