Suggest Treatment For Pain In Leg After An Injection In The Back

Bruise are formed after injury
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for posting
I have gone through your query and understand your concern. On the basis of description of the symptoms it does not looks to be blood clot or deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
The most likely cause is injury to the knee and it could be rupture of knee capsule or the meniscus (C shape cartilage inside knee joint) tear.This may be confirmed by physical examination or by MRI of knee.
To help you better please let me know -if you are able to make the leg straight and bend it fully?
Meanwhile my suggestion is to take rest,Ice fomentation, Thrombophob ointment application, ibuprofen and trypsin/chymotrypsin to relieve the pain and swelling.Your local pharmacist might know about these drugs.
Hope this helps and I shall be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
