My hand swelled after my last infusion, can I put another needle in my swollen hand this time? I infused a cephalosporin and the swelling has not gone down and it hurts a little.

This situation if the last infusion site swelling should be localized oozing edema and phlebitis stimulation caused. If completely subsided, the blood vessels have returned to normal should be able to infuse again, if the swelling is not completely subsided should try not to infuse in this part of the stimulation, at the same time should be local external magnesium sulfate hot compresses to promote the absorption of swelling.
