A member asked:

Given injection (kenalog/bupivacaine) for costochondritits 4 weeks ago. 3 days after developed non-itchy redness on upper left chest, down outer half of left arm to wrist, occasional slight ache. dermatologist & physiatrist had no answers. any ideas?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Difficult to say: It is difficult to say what happened here. I do not know your medical history. Let us say you were in perfect health other than costochondritis and you got this reddness after the injection , anybody would think that there could be a relation between injected medication and rash. Leave it to dermatologist to manage. It may gradually disappear on it's on.
