I received a Kenalog injection on my face on September 19, 2006. Since then my life has become a living hell. Tbis was to relieve the inflammation from a cyst. Hah!! I have severe redness and burning on my face and it hurts to this day. Every cream and even prednisone failed to take this away. I saw a plastic surgeon yesterday, who said the effects may be permanent. This includes changes in pigmentation (which I've noticed), slow healing, etc. I suffered a severe depression and had to go on short term disability from work. The surgeion has recommened IPL as a way to treat the redness. I'm going to try to get a lawyer. This injection was given by an incompetent PA who never warned me of any of the side effects. Does anyone know of ANYTHING that can reduce the redness and burning? I'm desperate.
