Hello folks!
I’m new here. I have been struggling to understand what could be going on with me since I had a buttock injection 3 months ago (for neck pain) and developed a lump. A couple of weeks after that I developed numbness and weakness in my leg, foot.. my GP said it was nerve compression. Surgeon didn’t recommend surgery and said the lump was too superficial to cause any problems!
Things now progressed to the point where I cannot be on my feet for a long time - my leg muscles and ligaments start hurting like crazy.
I had to quit all walking, exercising and feel very debilitated by this. CT scan showed some superficial fat granuloma at the site of injection (lump) and minor inflammation. Waiting for EMG..( with Covid 19, this might take three months to get in)...
I wonder if there is a nerve damage done and therefore symptoms . Anyone had scar tissue removed so it relieved nerve compression?

What test could show nerve compression/damage?
And most importantly, anyone had luck getting better with this? Or this permanent ?

Thank
You got your response!!
