What Causes Soreness And Tingling In The Arm That Took Cortisone Injection?

Earlier today I had cortisone injection in my wrist for De Quervain s. An hour later my hand was still tingling and sore, and my hand and forearm was really cold, even though warm outside. Non-injected arm & hand fine. This lasted for about 2 hours. Now, my hand is a bit sore but not as cold anymore.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It is due to local inflammation and will settle by itself.

As of now you can use analgesics/anti inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief.

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