Lower Back Injury. Taken Flouroscopic Injection, Vicodin Script, Buttock Pain. Due To Injection?
I recently had a flouroscopic injection to address my lower back injury on the job. I was on a vicodin script following procedure. I finished the Vicodin a few days ago and it may be coincidental but my buttock is in extreme pain and hurts in an area to touch and in most positions when I am lying down or standing for a while. Is this possibly a pain associated with the injection and is it possible the script was masking this pain

1. probably you are talking about Methadone [prescription opioid analgesic] which is used as an analgesic to relieve pain by blocking nerve/pain receptors and at the same time substitution therapy of opioid dependence.
2.it can be possible that due to lowering of drug in the blood, it have unmasked the pain.
3. If no improvement occurs within ten days after the injection, then it is unlikely to gain any pain relief from the injection and further diagnostic tests may be needed to accurately diagnose the pain.
