Common Questions and Answers about Tramadol injection

I received an injection of Tramadol in my left shoulder on March 11, 2020 and an injection for a block in my right shoulder, for surgery, in May 2020. I’m still experiencing pain in both these injection sites. It’s significant pain and feels like a knot remains on both sites as well.
Just wondering if there’s some “disorder” that may cause this. I know it’s not normal based on previous injections without residual pain.
Thanks!
A recent MRI shows that I have a protruding disc in my back. The symptom is extreme pain and numbness in my left leg. The first episode of excruciating pain occurred in December, 2004. I did not have another episode until September, 2010. Then, a third episode in March, 2011. Each episode seems to be more severe. This past episode left me with no reflex in my left leg. I was put on tramadol (300 mg) to manage the pain.
My PM doc tested me all of a sudden and I am afraid of what will happen if test comes back with anything wrong. I took some tramadol recently that my PCP gave me for a torn RT Cup. What is the process when I go back for my spinal injection in FEB that might happen?????If test is positive for something???
8 codipar a day (2 tabs - 4 times a day, 500 mg paracetamol and 30 mg codeine) also I a taking 8 tramadol a day 50mg tabs 2 tabs 4 times a day. I had a phone call from another doctor at my practice saying that I should not be taking both co diaper and tramadol together as they are both opiates. How should I best reduce the dose? And is it correct I should not take them both?
Hi Suziqt,
Wildwoodone is correct about Tramadol however there are addictive qualities to this medication even though it is not classified as a opiate. Your friend should be fore-warned about the addictive qualities. I have been told the withdrawal from it is also horrible.
Stadol is an opiate. It is availabe injectable or nasal spray. STADOL (butorphanol tartrate) Injection and STADOL NS (butorphanol tartrate) Nasal Spray are listed in Schedule IV of the Controlled Substances Act (CSA).
I have a malpractice injury. An IM gluteal injection was given too low in my buttock and damged my sciatic nerve. I felt a zap down the back of my leg right after the injection, and then it became numb. It went through my back and into my other leg.
This happened in April. Now, almost 3 months later, I'm still having issues with it. My right foot often feels numb, and I have to drag it sometimes when I walk. I have pain down the backs of both legs as well.
com an injection of tramadol should not be given to patients who are on anti depressants and sleeping tablets, but my father passed away 6 hours after recieving a tramadol injection.
Seizures (convulsions) have occurred in some people taking tramadol. You may be more likely to have a seizure while taking tramadol if you have a history of seizures or head injury, a metabolic disorder, or if you are taking certain medicines such as antidepressants, muscle relaxers, or medicine for nausea and vomiting.
Take tramadol exactly as it was prescribed for you. Do not take it in larger doses or for longer than recommended by your doctor.
*It's been like this for 3 weeks.
ve had daily sometimes severe headaches, not relieved by standard Tylenol, Ibuprofen, Tramadol, even Toradol injection. They start when I wake up, lessen when I stand or sit upright, made worse by activity, leaning my head foreword. If I lay down flat with ice pack on my forehead I get significant relief until I get up. I finally relented and saw my doctor who ordered CT scan. Note from radiology "normal findings, incidental Colliod cyst".
today i saw a pain mngmt dr, he took me off hydrocodone 7.7/500mg, and tramadol 50mg, i was allowed 4 vicodins a day and up to 8 tramadol.
i have an appt to see him next thursday to, He put me on morphine sulfate IR 1m mg, 1 tab 2x's a day and morphine sulfate 30 mg CR 1 tab 2x's a day, I hope i get better and longer relief.
My question will these new meds help any thoughts?
I've heard over and over again on here that tramadol is absolute hell to get off of. Like people are complaining more than someone who is trying to get off harder opiates. What's the big deal with this drug? Can someone answer me with specifics? Also, is there anyone out there that has just taken it for a short time and then stopped with no problems?
Work accident/ Yeh had an MRI, showed torn Disc L5/S1 & problem with surrounding facets. No nerve impingment, just irritated. Im in CONSTANT pain in mid & lower back, into buttock and ito and down mainly right leg, sometimes, left too. I sometimes get cold and pin & needles in feet. They started me on co-codamol & diclofanac, then to tramadol and diclofenac, then added norotriplyene.
A tramadol overdose can be fatal. Overdose symptoms of a tramadol overdose may include drowsiness, shallow breathing, slow heartbeat, extreme weakness, cold or clammy skin, feeling light-headed, fainting, or coma. Tramadol may be habit-forming and should be used only by the person it was prescribed for. Tramadol should never be given to another person, especially someone who has a history of drug abuse or addiction. Keep the medication in a secure place where others cannot get to it.

In the meantime she gave me some drugs. Dicloffinac and tramadol and sent me for a cortisone shot. By this time I needed a cane to walk. The radiologist inserted the freezing needle and explained that I was a good candidate for the cortisone as there was red fluid coming from the tube. When he went on with the needle I initially felt nothing as I watched on the screen and then a severe jolt ran across my groin and down the leg.

ive been to see a second doctor today because i needed to be signed off from work whilst i get over the tramadol withdrawels and he agreed with me that taking an AD to help is the best thing to do and also agreed that tramadol does cause problems. yet my actual doctor says hes not heard of it before!
goes to show how different doctors have different opinions!!

I've been a plasterer for many year then had a couple of injection in both my elbow also prescribed TRAMADOL for the on going acking pain in my arms . I must be honest and absolutely loved taking these pills for about 5-7 years the motivation would help me work like a champion. Now i no longer plaster for a living there really is no need for me to keep taking Tramadol.
