Welcome to HCM.
Some injections are oily and painful up to 2 to 3 days.
Redness,pain,numbness even after 10 days indicates development of infection.
Start nsaid to subside pain,inflammation.
Proper antibiotic is required to control the infection like amoxy/clavulinic.
Take proper local care.
Avoid tight under garment.
Keep in touch with your doctor.
