The cone after the injection in the buttock - how to get rid?

Probably, anyone who has been through whole courses of treatment with injections, is familiar with such a phenomenon as the bumps under the skin after the injection. In fact, it does not really matter whether a nurse injects into an outpatient clinic or a relative at home - in any case, at least one or several injections from the course can trigger a so-called post-injection infiltrate.

If a lump is formed after the injection ...

Sealing on the site of the injection can hurt, itch and cause other discomfort. To avoid the appearance of cones, you must follow the rules of injection, as well as take into account the individual characteristics of each person.

Anyway, when the compaction has appeared, do not expect that it will resolve itself. In any case, you need to take action as soon as possible, since the cones after the injections require treatment. Seals in place of injections can be caused by the following factors.

• Inflammatory process. In very rare cases, even if all the rules of antiseptic are fulfilled, subcutaneous or intramuscular infection may occur with the injection. This is one of the most dangerous complications, as it can cause suppuration and abscess.
• Allergic reaction. Redness, itching and rash at the injection site mean that certain components of the drug cause an inadequate body reaction.
• Nerve damage. Numbness of the tissues around the compaction, which does not pass for a long time, can sharply shoot through the pain in the thigh.

How to get rid of cones after injections?

Having found out a cone after a nyxis, try the very simple folk methods first:

• Several times a day, apply an iodine screen to the injection site.
• Cut a piece of cabbage leaf and attach to the seal at night.
• Prepare an egg, a tablespoon of butter, honey and flour dough. Pinch cakes from it slightly larger in area than the compaction area, and fix on the skin every 12 hours for two to three days.
• Fresh aloe juice should be applied to a cotton pad and fastened with a plastic wrap on the place of formation of the cone. The compress is changed every 6 hours, it rushes for 3-5 days.

How long do the bumps dissolve after the injections?

According to various patients, the postinjection infiltrate can remain under the skin for 2 months to 2 years or more. The folk remedies described above can only be tried during the first two months. Sometimes such methods help to dissolve and one-year-old cones, but usually within two months the place around the compaction is overgrown by the cellular matrix and connective tissue. This prevents active substances from reaching the cones through the skin, therefore surgical intervention is indicated.

The cone after the injection in the buttock does not resolve - medication treatment

In addition to folk remedies, there are several medications that will help dissolve the infiltrate:

• troxevasin;
• lyoton;
• triomel;
• compresses with magnesia;
• Dimexide (diluted fivefold).

Often the compaction under the skin is completely painless and does not bring much discomfort. Patients may not pay attention to infiltration for several years, until the body finally decides to get rid of it on their own. In such cases, around the cone there is inflammation, which is felt in the form of itching, tingling and local fever. As soon as these symptoms manifest, a simple operation of removing the infiltrate is appointed - a small incision under local anesthesia, rapid cleaning, disinfection and stitching. It is better that the operation be performed before the suppuration, in order to avoid the risk of blood infection and scarring while restoring the tissues.
