I got my Makena injection in my thigh yesterday and it is swollen and it's hard to walk. How long…

I get mine on my rear, I get a big red lump that doesn’t go down till just about the time for the next injection. You may wanna let your nurse or doctor know about the reactions your having to it.

The last time I got it in my butt and it hurt too but it stopped after a couple of days. But this seems excessive. I go to the dr on Monday. I'll let them know then

Just give the doc a call but I never get them in the thigh I always get it in my butt and it itches a few days after but that's it. Make sure you relax before giving it and it honestly depends on who gives it bc I rarely feel it

The nurse told me I could alternate betweeb my butt, leg and arm. I think I'm going to stick with my butt bc I literally can't walk. It's getting better tho.

And the nurse taught me this week how to do them myself. I missed last week's appt and it was a PAIN trying to reschedule it. Not to mention the copay every week for lab work.

I would do mine in my hip/love handle. The further down I went on my butt would hurt more and be sore. I would just bend over something and have someone inject it.

Yeah I'm definitely going back to the butt. My thigh is just now going down and the pain is easing up just a little bit

I have mine done in my hip and it definitely stings going in but after that I'm fine ?
