Hello!
Thanks for query.
Needle like sensations are not related to steroids or antibiotics.

These drugs can cause rash rash sometimes but steroids never cause needle like sensations.

Use simple analgesics for symptomatic relief.
Consult with physician if symptoms persist.
Hope this answers your query.
Thank you.
