Steroid injection in thigh
Hi,
My partner injected a steroid into his thigh (steroid was bought online with someone he doesn’t know). It created intense pain, he was given antibiotics but... a few days later it was still the same. He then injected the other thigh as it was due with his cycle.
Both legs are painful, went to hospital and I just spoke to the receptionist he’s going into surgery.
She of course could not explain over the phone.
Would surgery be due to nerve damage?
Or infection/removing the substance
