Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It’s quite common after intramuscular injection and will subside by itself. You can take analgesics, like Paracetamol or Ibuprofen for pain. Apply hot compresses. If symptoms persists, then consult a nearby doctor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
