I was wondering if my reaction could be related to the cortisone infiltration? I have never had this kind of reaction.

Question

I had my third infiltration of Arnold's nerve on Friday morning. It's not the same doctor who usually does it. Also, one side was done by a medical resident. Since then I have been having heat and nausea constantly. I have never reacted like this. The pain is not worse than usual nor are the migraines. I do not have a fever. How long can I expect to feel nauseous

Good evening ma'am, Yes, this could be related to your cortisone injection. Are you able to contact the team that performed the infiltration? From my end, I can tell you that it can take several days for the nausea to subside, unfortunately.
