I had a neck epidural injection 2 weeks ago. why does it still hurt where the injection was given?it was given at c6 c7. is that usually where given?

Yes: That is where the injection usually is given. It's not that unusual to still have some soreness at the injection site. It should be easing up though. If not, contact the physician that administered the injection.
