Hello
Your problem looks like some extrvasation of your injecton . Dont worry it usually subsides in few days but you have to watch for any coplour change sweling or pain in that limb and if it occurs you have to consult the nearby physician to rule out a cellulitis . otherwise it not a big problem
Take care
