Is this normal after a bum injection?

[NoCapes]

3 weeks ago I had an anti-sickness injection in my bum, first time I've ever had one there and fuck me did it hurt!!
But it's still hurting!
It's very very tender right around the top of my bum cheek and when I lie on it especially I kind of feel like there's something in there, like when my bum is pushed up I can feel something almost in the way (really don't know how to describe that very well)
It aches - fuck me does it ache
And while there's nothing where the needle was actually put in I'm now getting random bruises around my hip and on that one thigh that aren't sore and I don't think I've banged myself or anything

Was it administered wrong? Or is this completely normal?

BUMp

Hmmm no idea but bumping for you!

Thankyou

Anyone in the afternoon crowd care about my sore bum?

Bumping nocapes bum.
Hope you're doing ok

I had one after DC3 was born because I was vomiting from the g&a and the speed of it and the midwife was getting worried, she was newly qualified. It really really hurt for almost two weeks!! And I refused it this time. Tried to refuse last time but she wouldn't take no for an answer!!

So I feel your pain and it will improve but it could take a while! As for the bruising I don't know about that, sorry but

Ah thank you style (and Wicks for the bump )
So prolonged pain is quite normal then, I was only expecting it for maybe a day or two, that's very reassuring
Don't think I'll ever let anyone put a needle in my arse again though! Glad I never went for contraception that way - every 3 months? No thankyou!

I think its gone into a muscle if it hurts like that. I had it once and it ached for ages.
I get a kenalogue injection into my bum twice a year and it never hurts. And they are big needles

Was it cyclizine? I've had a few of those and I a hard lump on my arse for ages! I didn't get the same with injections of ondansetron.

I had an anti emetic jab when I had dd2. The bruise was like a dinner plate and lasted ages

Mrs I actually can't remember what it was (I had a lot of medication in quite a short amount of time)

Coco quite reassuring to know there is actually some muscle in there under all the flab at least

sausage there's no actual bruise where it went in, which is the odd part

Yes and if you were tense when it went in that can make it hurt more!

It's likely a haematoma, basically a collection of blood (bruise!) under the skin. I inject blood thinner twice daily and get some almighty hard, painful lumps that last for weeks, and that's only into fat, not muscle. Cyclizine is notorious for being evil, hope it at least did the job at the time!

I was definitely tense!

I've iust googled Cyclizine and I think it was that, the 'may cause drowsiness' warning on everything I read made me LOL though - I could barely hold my own head up afterwards!
Pie it did stop the vomitting to be fair ... But still ... Ow!

I got a tetanus shot before and it hurt like mad!

Cocolepew, I didn't think those injections were allowed anymore because they can cause dents in your backside. Is it for hayfever you get them?

Yes, ow luckily I've only ever had it post op and my large abdominal incision coupled with major infection made the cyclizine ow pale into insignificance but it's not pleasant! I take cyclizine orally normally but can't hack more than one dose in the day if I'm to function...!

Does sound haematoma-like, once the bruise colour is gone (and actually you might not see it as it can be well under the skin) it's just a lump left that can take some time to go. The bruising around the area could be where there was a small bleed from the injection and it's spread, I can get a bruise a good few inches from where injection went as the blood flows and pools. Unfortunately v easy to hit a small blood vessel and cause a bit of a bleed, nothing to worry about, it will go :)

I hated the cyclizine injections. It felt 'rough' going though my veins too. Horrible.

I get kenalogue injections. No dents in me bum as far as I know.

I get them for Lupus 3luckystars, I was warned I might get dents.
I'm not bothered because I don't look at my bum on a regular basis

Well if they work then I suppose you are right!

Dents in your bum?!
Don't even know if I'd notice bastard cellulite

I knew some clever people in the know would come along and put my mind at ease
Thanks ... So glad I didn't ask the doctor now

Hi I was wondering did u ever get to bottom of this ? Xx
