Minor nerve damage: Occasionally, small nerves that allow skin sensation can be damaged by injections. It is usually due to the needle and not what was injected. Recovery can take a few weeks to a few months.

Paradoxical symptoms: With a new vitamin treatment, however necessary, symptoms often become temporarily worse before improving. It is called paradox because it is the opposite of what is expected by the patient. Its resolution time is variable and unpredictable.
