Pain Management |
Post Injection Pain10/17/2007 |
A nurse injected 50mg of Promethezine and 50mg of Demerol into my hand without using an IV and now my entire arm`s veins are popping out, red, and painful. Will this go away? It is very uncomfortable and scary. It`s the veins on the outside of my arm.
You should seek medical opinion from your physician or preferably have a Pain Medicine specialist to evaluate your arm. In the absence of infection or a blood clot, pain, redness and swelling may be signs of a rare painful condition that may follow a trivial injury sometimes.
