Accepted Answer

Not recommended: Interferon is used for treating certain viral infections, in the case of viral hepatitis, is currently used for treating hepatitis c and sometimes hepatitis b.  There are other drugs that can be added to augment the effectiveness of interferon for viral hepatitis.

Not uncommon: It is not uncommon to have some residual pain at the site of an epidural injection. It typically goes away in a few days to a week. If it does not go away or is accompanied by fever, severe pain, numbness, tingling, weakness, bowel or bladder programs you should see your doctor immediately.

Question 4

Question 5

had injection 10month ago,but i still feel lump and pain at the injection site,also feel pulling down my leg.pls what can i do?

Accepted Answer

Hematoma: The lump could be a hardened blood clot under the skin as some bleeding might have occurred at the time of the injection. This is not a dangerous type of blood clot but if it has hardened it may not completely dissolve. It shouldn't cause any other symptoms,however. See your physician if symptoms persist.

Question 6

is it okay to have severe pain at the injection site of a lumbar puncture followed by leg weakness?

Accepted Answer

No, get evaluated: While the symptoms you describe may simply be a result of nerve root irritation, they may represent a hematoma- bleeding from the lumbar puncture site can put pressure on the nerve root or the spine itself.  This can be extremely dangerous, and you should definitely get checked to rule out the possibility.

Question 7

i had a toradol injection 9/1 for a migraine it was given in my left hip/buttocks. i still have pain at the injection site if i bump it. is having pain still at the injection site a common thing to happen?

Accepted Answer

: The intramuscular injection can affect the muscle it was injected into for a while, sometimes a few weeks, after the injection. If it only hurts when bumped, it is likely getting better. If you avoid bumping it and sit on soft surfaces, it is likely to heal faster. If ice or heat makes it feel better, that may help as well. Good luck!

Question 8

got a cortisone shot in my neck for a bulging disc.4 days after i feel soreness still and will get a sharp pain at the injection site and it seems slightly swollen. is this normal?

Accepted Answer

No: There may have been slight bleeding under the skin at the injection site. If so, black and blue discoloration of the skin as well as tenderness develops around the injection area. If pain or swelling worsens get examined by the physician who administered the injection.

Question 9

i have undergone an extraction for my lower, first pre-molar.an inferior alveolar nerve block was given to me but since, there's pain at the injection site and reduced mouth opening. what should i do?

Accepted Answer

Give it time: I assume the procedure was just recently completed.  You should give it some time for the soreness should go away, check with the dentist if you are still having trouble with the area in a few days.  Message  your jaw and moist heat may also help.

Question 10

after having a  shot is it normal to have a knot under the injection site?

Accepted Answer

Yes.: This is not unusual at all.  The swelling may come from the injected fluid itself, small amount of swelling, maybe some local bleeding and later an inflammatory reaction which is a normal response to foreign substances in the body.
