I recieved an injection to my right buttock about 1 week ago today. I have had an area of numbness surrounded by an area of burning discomfort to the area since that time. The area is about the size of grapefruit. I am a nurse and know that my sciatic nerve was probably injured during the injection. My question is what do I need to do to treat my symptoms? Do I need any testing to rule out permanent damage? And is this going to be permanent?
