It is very likely that during injection nerve might be pierced by the needle or medicine could be injected too close to the nerve. Under such situation, nerve will irritated and give rise to the symptoms mentioned by you. However, there could me many other causes of above symptoms which could be ascertained only after detailed clinical examination followed by appropriate investigations.
