Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i recently got a shot about a week ago and the nurse inserted into my shoulder instead of my upper arm and it is still in a lot of pain i can barely lift it and I m not able to lay down without pain. Ive been on advil and it makes it feel better but it is not healing.
Hi i suggest you continue with advil since you feel better on it and observe again for some time.If pain continues and any swelling, you see a doctor to examine the injection site to exclude an infection. Regards
