I had my shot done one week ago in my right hand. The bad part is that I am right handed and constantly use my hand. I am having a lot of pain. The majority of the time, it is unbearable to the point that I drop what is in my hand. I called the doctor twice and was told this was normal to have pain and that it would eventually subside. It's been one wee and I am still in pain. I've iced it and applied a heating pad but when I stop , the pain would be worse than when I started. I seem to get no comfort to the point that I am not sleeping at night. is this normal? has anyone else experienced the same problems?
