Hi thanks for writing to Practo consult. The swelling occurs dye to bleeding inside muscle , which is obviously due to needle cutting through the tissue. It will take 2-3 months and resolve.
Next Steps
Every time after any injection remember to press that area constantly for at least 5 min, check for bleeding after 5min , if present press for another 5min. this will prevent from swelling next time.
