    Kenalog butt cheek, class action suit, better with time, dents, three months
    I to have a huge dent in my right butt cheek. I would be interested in a class action suit. This is ridiculous! It has been about three months since I received the shot. Has anyone noticed their dents getting better with time?

    That's a side effect of some intramuscular injections. How can you sue for a known side effect of that drug? It's up to the consumer to research anything that's being put in your body.

    Its not a case of thinking we need to perfect, its that we were not warned of atrophy and associated weakness, numbness and pain. We are entitled to the "perfect" bodies we were born with before kenalog caused atrophy.
