Injections are feared by many people and, one might say, not in vain. Only one should be afraid not of the injection itself, but of its possible consequences, which are sometimes much worse. For example, bumps from an injection may form. How to treat them? Why do they arise? Let's find out.
How do they appear?
I must say that such seals appear mainly in adults and tend to dissolve on their own, but sometimes they can and should be helped. A bump on the pope after an injection is formed if the injection is done incorrectly. For example, the drug did not get into the muscle tissue, as it should, but into the fatty layer, and formed a so-called capsule. Due to the characteristics of adipose tissue, the encapsulation of the bumps from the injection (how to treat them, we will learn later) takes quite a long time. It is important to know that in particularly difficult cases, the development of an abscess is not excluded, so if a bump has formed, this place is reddened and causes painful discomfort, it is best to consult a doctor.
How to avoid bumps?
To a large extent it all depends on the design of the syringe. In Western medicine, for example, there are widespreadthree-component syringes with a black rubber band on the piston: they reduce the pain and consequences of injections to zero due to this very rubber band, which makes the piston movement uniform and does not let air through. Therefore, the occurrence of bumps in patients is a very rare occurrence.
How to get rid of injection bumps yourself?
One of the most effective methods is regular massage. It warms the tissues and promotes the speedy encapsulation of the injected drug. Iodine nets will also help you, which should be applied twice a day - in the morning and in the evening. An alcohol compress also helps: before applying it to the skin, treat it with petroleum jelly to avoid burns. Pharmacies now sell a large number of products that can cure bumps from an injection. How to treat them with folk methods? There are many recipes, consider the most common and affordable.
Traditional medicine offers fresh cabbage leaves as a healing agent. It is necessary to crush or cut the leaf so that the juice comes out on it, and apply it to the affected area overnight - the juice helps to dissolve the bump from the injection. How to treat the problem with honey? You will need butter, honey and the yolk of one egg. Of these, it is necessary to prepare a mixture and put it in the form of a cake on the problem area, covering it with cellophane to enhance the effect. Aloe juice helps a lot with bumps: a few bottom sheets should be kept in the refrigerator for a day, then beat off well, put on a gauze bandage and attach to the bump.
If theydo not disappear
All these remedies are for self-treatment, but it does not always bring results. If the bumps do not resolve, you should consult a doctor. As we have already said, massage helps a lot, and only a doctor can prescribe the necessary physiotherapy procedures, depending on the size and density of the bump. In addition, such formations are fraught with the development of tissue inflammation, which can lead to the most unpleasant consequences - up to blood poisoning.
