Guest guest Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 Hi: I started giving myself Humira injections at Christmas time...and I was wondering if anyone out there is experiencing the same skin reactions as I am. When I give myself the injection, the area around the site on the first day gets red around a half inch or so. Day 2 the area is still red, but larger, around 3.5 inches from around the injection site and the site gets very sore, swolen and itchy. Day 3 the swolen/itchy is gone, but the area is still red. After this, it isnt bothersome, but if I look at myself in the mirror, the 3.5 inch area is still visible...kinda like a bruise (the skin is darker in that area). It stays this way for at least a week. I do feel much better using Humira...but not sure if this is a bad reaction. Thank you! Carla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
