Suggest treatment for pain at injection site
Patient: Hello, I am using Penidure 12 Lac Units Deep IM from 8 years and now I am used to it like I do not take test doses. After applying the injection the pain remains for 2-4 days but last week I did the same but the pain has not gone yet and the area of application is swollen up. What is it and What to do next...? Doctor: As you are taking injection penidura I can guess most probably you have rheumatic heart disease. First of all even though you are taking penidura since last 8 years never ignore its test dose even when you are very sure that no any reaction appears. Now as far as your problem is concerned panidura is definitely a quite painful injection and if this pain is unbearable along with swelling of the local area than you can take tab combiflam or tab ibugesic-plus three times daily after meals. In addition to that nothing much you have to do, apply ice if swelling and redness is more.
