Question:
In December I got my Depo shot. I get this in my right hip. Since the day I recieved my shot, my right leg has been numb on and off and in the upper part of my leg I have been feeling a spot that feels like it is burning inside my leg. Could this be caused by the shot and could it be a blood clot? I have seen a doctor and he poked my leg a few times and said he could find nothing. The exam lasted maybe 5 minutes. Do you know what could be causing this and what do you suggest I do?
