Golf ball lump after injection
Hey man, This is my first Post here. So I dont want to tell you that I am any sort of Steriod expert (quite the opposite actually). But I am however in the Medicine world for work (in hospital, Give lots of shots). It sounds to me like you prob have cellulitus... Its not the end of the world, it can be treated with antibiotics no problem. Everyone cares the Bacteria Staph - A. on our skin (everyone). Thats one of the reasons it is so important to use clean needles and to clean the skin just before the injection. When the needle punctures the skin, it creates an opening for the bacteria to get through -- and sometimes it does. So my advice, if your interested, is make sure to clean really well, dont let anything touch you or the needle after each has been sterilized. And ask an M.D. for some antibiotics. You can prob just have your PCP call them in if you give them a detailed description... Is it kinda hard? Not little a bubble, but like ther might be a piece of paper under there? if so, prob Cellulitus -- My two cents
