Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms are suggestive of a local reaction to the drug and vessel constriction. It seems that you have not got the vein, but instead injected it into the muscle. I recommend using warm local packs and try to be patient. Anyway, I would recommend avoiding this drug in the future, because it has a lot of bad effects on your body. You should discuss with your doctor on this test.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
