Suggest Remedy For Severe Pain,burning And Inflammation In My Left Hip?
I had a cortisone shot in my left hip on March 13th for brucities. I have a small labarl tear but my doctor said it wasn t the issue. I was fine all week from the shot. Exactly a week later - March 20th in the evening - I started to feel server pain were the shot was injected. The next morning I woke up with so pain and burning and inflammation. I couldn t work for days. It s been a full week and I m still not better. I haven t been to work all week due to the pain. I m icing and heating all day and taking naproxen twice a day. I m really taking care of myself but what gives?? I don t under what happened and my doctor doesn t know either. I m seeing another doctor on Mondsy but I really need some peace of mind. I m in physical therapy right now for my pelvic floor and because the bursitis is inflamed my progress is slow. We thought the cortisone shot would help but why am I so much worse?? I really need some help.

The region could have been infected after the injection and caused pus collection. Get an Ultrasound to rule out abscess.
