Can Thrombophob Gel Be Used For Swelling In The Wrist During Pregnancy?

My age is 34. I am 8-months pregnant. I have cervical incompetence. In my 33 weeks, the doctor administered steroid injection. 24-hour duration 1 injection is given. I have taken two injections. My hemoglobin was less . it was 10.00. Doctor-administered the injection to improve the hemoglobin in my body. It was given through Intravenous Medication. I found swelling and severe pain at my wrist now(where IV set was administered). I have contacted my doctor. She advised Thrombohob Ointment. I have applied this 24hours back, still, my pain and swelling are not cured. I am doing ice cube therapy also. Can I use Thrombohob Jel? Is there any painkiller tablet ? kindly help me .
