What Causes Swelling In Ankle After Taking Euflexxa Shots?

Three weeks ago I completed the series of 3 shots of Eflexxa shots in my right knee due to severe arthritis. The shots have not really helped and know I have noticed swelling on the inside of my right ankle. It s not painful just a bit stiff. What might the problem be? Could the Eflexxa injection solution moved to my ankle?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, although it may not be due to injection but trauma to vascular region could be the cause, or second it could be due to arthritis it self, try to keep the leg in elevated position, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
