Hi, Thanks for the query. I understand your concern. Sustain does not have such side effect.I feel it's inflammation at the site of injection due to leakage of some medicine in subcutaneous tissue/ injection at a wromg site/ un co operation from patient ( with brisk movement as the injection needle entered the skin.. ) causing needle prick in the tissue causing bleeding. To manage you can- - apply hot IF there is lot of inflammation)/ cold pack( in case of bleeding under skin ) at the area. - Apply ointment like Thrombophobe like butter on bread slice. Don't massage. - Take NSAID drug available over the counter twice a day after food. - If there is no relief in couple of days.. consult a doctor for suitable antibiotic. - If not cared for in time an abscess may form, which needs incision & drainage. Thanks.
