Brief Answer:
You might have acquired Injection abscess

Detailed Answer:
Hi
I have come across many cases of Injection abscess, occuring at the site of injection. I have seen both in upper arm and buttocks.
Initially, it starts as Cellulitis, infection of skin and tissue beneath the skin (subcutaneous tissue).Later, pus gets collected causing pain and local rise of temperature.
I prefer to get an Ultrasound of the affected area and confirm the stage.whether abscess has formed or not.If abscess is not evolved, I prescribe Antibiotic like Cefuroxime tablet along with Anti inflammatory tablet to my patients with similar complaints. If abscess has formed, then Incision and Drainage is the only option.
I request you to consult your doctor and get an Ultrasound of the affected area.
I feel that RPC has no role in your case.
It has to be dealt by a Surgeon.
Nothing to worry. It will come down.
I have treated many patients with complete cure.
Hope I answered your query. If you have any questions, I will clarify further.
Wish you good health.
Regards
