A member asked:
I had a shot of flexiril in my buttocks, but where the needle went in it still hurts?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very possible: Yes, there have been reported cases of injection site pain and irritation with flexeril (cyclobenzaprine hcl). You can try using an ice pack over the sore site but, if you get progressive pain, redness, swelling, or fever see your doc as infections also do happen after deep im injections.
