A member asked:
After getting acupuncture for a shoulder problem, my left inner shin keeps going really hot. what could it be?

Short or long term?: It is common within 48 hours of treatment to have temporary symptoms like this in other parts of the body, then they go away. If its been longer than that, see if there is a needle bruise there. That could take a week or do to go away.
