I don’t have a shoulder injury, but I do have a wrist injury (likely a TFC tear) and received cortisone shot for that. It was quite uncomfortable; you feel more pressure in the joint than pain in my experience, which itself feels really weird. If you’re concerned about pain, you could take a couple of ibuprofen before your appointment and that might help. Any pain I had from the injection didn’t last long after it was done.
