Hi,
Based on the history you have shared, it can be sign of local inflammation or infection due to contamination of site. If collection of drug outside vessel is the cause, it can get relieved with ice application or local anti inflammatory drugs application however if persist, may need surgical review.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
