Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The symptoms seem to be related to the injection.

I suggest to take Advil to reduce pain and inflammation.

I also recommend to use hot compresses.

A warm, moist towel can be helpful.

If the hand has an infection I suggest using an antibiotic such as augmentin 625 mg twice a day for a week.

It is a prescription medication, so you should consult your doctor about the treatment.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
