apply ice to the injection site and keep taking that aleve.
is it better to apply cold or hot to a injection site for pain relief? . received a pneumovax 23 injection in the muscle of my upper arm. pain and stiffness at the injection site. for pain relief i took 1 aleve. so far no relief. would it be helpful for pain relief to apply a hot or cold compress to the site of the injection. i can barely move my arm. . thank you.
