I'm really worried because after getting a steroid injection in my shoulder for nerve damage, I've been having severe stomach pain. Is this normal? What should I do about it?

Steroid injections can sometimes lead to stomach pain due to irritation of the stomach lining or acid reflux. While mild discomfort may resolve with over-the-counter remedies, severe stomach pain should not be ignored. You should reach out to your doctor to evaluate the cause of the pain and ensure proper treatment.

I thought I might have hemorrhoids because I've been taking phentermine for weight loss and heard that could be a side effect. It started with my anus being swollen and painful during bowel movements, and it's been like this for over a week now. But just now, I noticed a green, booger-like discharge from my anus. I took a picture to get a better idea of what's happening, and it looks like there's a blister down there. It's really painful around the blister and the surrounding area. I'm a bit freaked out because it shouldnt be an STDIm married and was just tested not too long ago. There's only this one blister. It's red around the edges and white on top. I really don't know what's going on. Any advice?
