What Causes Red Spots All Over Arms Post Cortisone Shot?
I recently had a cortisone injection in my recently replaced hip as I have come down with a nice case of bursitis. While the injection took care of the bursitis, I now have noticed red spots all over my arms. I am wondering if the injection is related to the spots, or what else could cause these spots to appear?
Hello.It is advisable to be seen by a doctor, it is difficult to suggest a diagnosis without photo or similar.If red spots cause itchy ,Hydrocortisone cream applied twice a day can improve it. Please go to to your physician for examination and prescription. I wish you good health. (if the answer has helped you,please indicate this).
