Severe Burning Cramps And Mottled Bruise In Left Leg After Taking Steroid Injection. How To Cure?

I awoke several nights ago with severe burnng cramps in my right inner thigh. A couple of days later I have a very large mottled bruise between the knee and groin. I plan to see my primary care physician as soon as I can, today if possible. I recently had a steroid injection in my right foot. Arthritis . No cartilage left there. Advice?

It appears that the bruise you had developed could be infected. Other signs of infection could be redness and swelling of thigh.
Kindly get it assess by your physician when you will be visiting.
