I am freaking out!! I just found this site and can't believe what I'm reading. I have a huge crater in my right buttock as well. This is the second time it has happened to me. After the first incident, I went to the doctor and she said she didn't know what it was, that it must have been due to trauma. This is the same doctor who prescribed the Kenalog shot for my allergies. It started out as a large bruise, so I assumed I must have hit something really hard and damaged the tissue. Now, a couple of yrs later, I have another, larger crater. I thought something really bad was wrong with me, so I decided to google and see what I could find. I am truly blown away by this and VERY upset that they did not warn me of this. I called the doctor, but they haven't returned my call yet. I'm concerned is this going to continue to get deeper? I also believe it affected my period as well. I have always been very regular, but for several months after the shot I would start my period every couple of weeks.

I had the exact same thing happen to me!! i was injected with the shot in my left buttock..and sure enough a couple days later i noticed a bruise..i never even thought to put two and two together..then a couple weeks later i noticed it getting worse and eventually it turned into this huge dent! once i found this site i KNEW it was Kenalog..so i called my doctor..and of corse that is what they gave me...they never even told me of any side effects! Luckily i havent recieved any problems with my period...i want to look into a class action lawsuit...this is just rediculous!

Do you have a lot of pain with the dent when you sit down? I sit for about 15 minutes and the pain starts. Any suggestions on relieving it if you have the pain?
