Pain in muscle
Hello, I've met an accident on May 4th 2017, my Scooty Slipped awfully, I fall on right side of arm, I got hurt on knees, arms, foot. I went home, cleaned it with detol and clean water, then I went to doctor he applied betadine which was painful because my skin was peeled, he has given me tetanus, after 4-5 days he has given me an injection for reducing pain, from that day when I got that pain killer injection on my arms my arms started paining like hell and it was numb on that area, i asked doctor he said it will become normal just keep on warming it and rub balms, i did, pain reduced, but till now i have that pain and that numbness, it reduced but when i touch it lightly too it pains, and its too much. I don't know what's happening? any suggestions please?

Numbness in a area with pain indicates neuropathic pain. This can occur due to nerve injury from injection or accident. You need to consult a pain specialist to manage this pain. Detailed evaluation is needed to be sure of the diagnosis.
Next Steps
Avoid taking further injections. Apply cold or warm pack at that area as per your convenience.
