I was injected in my left arm with Pheneragan, several CC's as the nurse said he was doing. Well, its 4 days later and my arm STILL hurts and is bruised. There feels like a knot under the area where the injection was and also bruising well below the injection site. I have had injections before of phenergan and no reactions. What is wrong with my arm? It is very painful.
Well I don't think Phenegran is normally injected into the arm. The arm muscle is just not big enough for several cc's of this med. If I had to guess, that is probably why your arm is still bruised and sore. Normally that med is given in the hip because it is bigger and can handle it better. Even then you will have maybe a small bruise and knot. But this should go away in a week or two. Your arm may take a little bit longer. I hope this info helps.
