In January, I slipped on the ice and hurt my back and right hip. My family medical doctor took some xrays and did and mri. Could see nothing. He then sent me to about six weeks of physical therapy. No relief so he sent me to a pain management doctor. The first visit with him, he examined me, looked over the mri and xray film, and read the reports from the radiologist. He started me back in physical therapy. The second visit, he injected my facets...still no relief. Back to therapy. The third visit, he injected my SI joints...still no relief. Back to therapy again. My fourth visit, he injected my hips...and it hurt like heck. At that time I was told to walk a lot. The pain in my back and my hip, caused by the accident, was so profuse, I could hardly stand it. But, I went to the mall and walked for about an hour. When I got home, I had to go straight to bed. For three nights and four days, I couldn't get out of bed. I had to keep myself knocked out with pain pills and muscle relaxors. On a scale of 1-10, the pain was a 20. It was terrible. The man kept sending me to therapy though. On my fifth, and final visit to him, he sent me for another mri. Guess what? My back is broken. 16 weeks of therapy and now it is too late to do anything about it. But I am noticing my blood surfacing under my skin in red blotches. My case worker says it could be caused by the kenalog injections. My question is, did anyone else who had kenalog injections experience the pain I had from them...or the red blotches under the skin? Thanks.
