What Causes Numbness In The Right Thigh While On Toradol?

I am having numbness in my right thigh that I have never had before! I got an IM Toradol shot on Thursday! I have had them before with no trouble after it was given! It is warm to the touch, just curious if it is a new reaction or side affect! I have been going over it all day! Could it be a blood clot or sciatic nerve?

It could be a blood clot with cellulitis as the area is warm. So nothing to worry. It will come down on its own. Do so warm fomentation. If you get fever then antibiotics may be required otherwise not.
