Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi.
As per your case history of yellow spot on injection site my advice is -
1. Histoglob injection are anti-allergic and less likely to cause any skin reaction.
2. The spot in your case may be due to improper technique as the injection may have been given intradermal instead of subcutaneous.
3. Don't worry. It will subside on its own. Just apply ice over the spots.
4. You can continue rest of the course of Histoglob with proper injection technique.

Thanks.
