If taking cortisone causes an unhealthy rise in blood pressure how long after taking the cortisone should it take for this effect to wear off?

Typically, steroids are adminstered in a measured, closed-end course that should start with a loading dose and be tapered down to zero over a period of time. Depending on the length and dosage of the course, you should see BP returning to nomal over the next week or so. If you don't get that info to your doc. Note also that whatever caused the need for steroids may be causing some of the hypertension too.
