Post Injection Flare | Arthritis Information

Share
 

I got my MRI results yesterday and my ortho said i have "mild" arthritis in my knee. He then gave me a cortisone mixed with anethestic injection in my knee. I immediately felt nauseated and like I couldn't walk as well. I really had no problems walking before the shot. A few hours later, the pain in my knee was excruciating. I couldn't walk at all and it had swollen. This morning I broke out with a burning red rash on my face. My knee still hurts.

Any one else have any experience like this? Just wondering if it is post injecton flare or allergic reaction or both?
