I used Kenalog once every year for hayfever symptoms for about five years, two years ago I developed these "dents" at the top of the cheeks on my bum, they turned a dark purple/black, eventually filled out and have gone back to being a normal color, but the pain in my hips and knees is starting to become unbearable. I'm waking at night time with the pain and having to take pain killers during the night to ease the pain. While it was a miracle treatment at the time of relieving my hay fever symptoms this pain is definitely not worth it. I'm 32 years of age and sometimes feel like an old woman rubbing her hips and knees.
