Reason For Bruising And Pain In The Arm Where The Injection Was Administered?

Received an injection in my left arm almost 4 weeks ago and I am now getting constant pain when I move it certain ways and when I touch or lay on the arm where I had the injection it feels like it is bruised and hurts. However my arm arm was fine before his injection.

it commonly occurs with iv injections if your veins got injured in a wring way causing some haematoma which compresses the surrounding tissues and causes pain..
the best treatment is ice application and using abtibruising cream as haemoclar cream and massage the area .
move your joint to allow the deep bruising to resolve .
thanks.
