A member asked:

Received a steroid and antibiotic shot 4 weeks ago. it is still knotted under my bum and when i work out it turns red and streaky. is this normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably hematoma: It is probably a hematoma(collection of clotted blood)under the skin.But 4 weeks is long time and if it is of concern to you get it checked by your doctor.
