Injection site reactions (ISRs) are reactions that occur at the site of injection of a drug. They may be mild or severe and may or may not require medical intervention. Some reactions may appear immediately after injection, and some may be delayed. [1] Such reactions can occur with subcutaneous, intramuscular, or intravenous administration.
Medication administered via intramuscular injection is not subject to the first-pass metabolism effect which affects oral medications. Common sites for intramuscular injections include the deltoid muscle of the upper arm and the gluteal muscle of the buttock. In infants, the vastus lateralis muscle of the thigh is commonly used. The injection ...
Symptoms are typically unilateral, seen in about 78% of cases, but may be bilateral. [4] [2] The most common symptom is pain, paresthesias, or dysthesias on the anterolateral surface of the thigh that extends just above the knee. [3] [8] [5] [2] [6] [4] (The term "meralgia paraesthetica" combines four Greek roots to mean "thigh pain with ...
Superior gluteal nerve palsy causes injury to the superior gluteal nerve, which results in motor loss that manifests as a disabling gluteus medius limp. [5] The most common cause is an iatrogenic injury during hip surgery or an intramuscular injection. Lesions of the inferior gluteal nerve occur through iatrogenic injuries like surgery, trauma ...
Patients also frequently report persistent or intermittent pain or dysthesias in posterior hip, buttocks, or thigh. [4] Unlike discogenic sciatica (caused by the spine), patients with deep gluteal syndrome report exacerbation of symptoms with pressure in the buttocks, such as tenderness or pain on deep palpation, or pain on prolonged sitting.
2. Excessive Stress. Stress is a natural, normal part of the human experience, and your body knows how to handle it. When you’re under stress, your body releases stress hormones that activate ...
A diagnosis of functional PAES is made if symptoms are improved after Botulinum injection. However, If symptoms are persisted, the patient can undergo an additional Botulinum injection or proceed with surgical decompression. [27] The outcome following the surgery is usually favorable. Successful resolution of PAES occurs in 77 percent of cases ...
Injury to this nerve leads to a gluteus maximus lurch. When gluteus maximus is weak/injured, trunk extends (lean back) on heel-strike on weakened side. This compensates for weakness of hip extension. Damage to the inferior gluteal nerve causes loss of extension at hip, and causes the buttock to waste.
