How many times can you get a shot in your back for pain?

I usually get one about once a year for terrible pain in my lower hip/back when the weather gets cold. I got a shot for pain last Friday, ran a marathon (my first) on Saturday and now the pain is back. Should I tough through it or call the doctor?

You should, it doesn’t take that long and you will be sure nothing is wrong.
Call the Dr. and get the shot.
Oops. I think they put restrictions on strenuous activity shortly after receiving the shot in order to allow the corticosteroid to circulate. Remember, those injections entail insertion directly into the spine!! So, since it could be either or some other culprit causing your pain, may well need to call the doc who coordinated your injection.
