Not uncommon: MereliseorchelleF, I'm sorry you're having so much pain. What did you have done? Often, a test injection of sorts is done to gauge weather or not an official injection will even work. You would have been told this. If your pain is severe then you need to go to the emergency room to rule out something that could be potentially worse!

Specializes in Urgent Care

See MD: If you had a procedure done on your spine and you are experiencing worsening pain, please get examined immediately in Urgent Care or the ER depending on the severity of your symptoms. First step would be to call the doctors office who did the procedure and try to get in to see them ASAP. If you have fever/chills or are unable to move call emergency services.
