Could Feeling Hot In Arms And Chest Be The Side Effect Of Methylprednisolone 4mg?
I m a 30 year old male. I have been prescribed methylprednisolone 4mg for a rash on my left leg. I m on my second day and I noticed my arms and chest feels very hot but just my arms and chest. My temp. is 97.9 though. Is this all a side effect from the medication or could there be another reason for the heat?
