General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello Dear
I evaluated your concern deeply .
@ This is related to inflammation at injection site ( mostly due to inadequate
absortion of drug molecule )
@ Ice applications , analgesics will help you temporarily but you definitely
require thorough medical treatment in form of proper antibiotics,
anti-inflammatory agents to get it resolved & in certain cases if not
responding then it may require surgical intervention called Incision &
Drainage.
Hope this will definitely help you to some extent.
Thanks for using Health care magic .
Wishing fine recovery from the issue .
Regards dear .
