A member asked:
I got a knee corticosteroid injection 2 days ago & now the skin over my hip bone is swollen. is this normal? thanks.

Not normal: Such an injection into your knee should have no effect on your hip. If there is true swelling over the hip or pain, notify the physician who administered the injection and have your hip,knee and entire leg examined.
