A member asked:
My surgeon injected triamcinolone acetonide with xylocaine (lidocaine) 5 days before but still there is pain and swelling in that area. what should i do?

Talk to surgeon : It is probably best to consult the same doctor who performed the injection, who already knows you, the indications and who can compare the current status with what he had seen before. He can also rule out or treat the unlikely complications, like infection, for example. Hope that helps.
