You'd know it if you had hit an artery, as blood would have come gushing out. Instead, you injected some sort of gunk that caused an infection. Because you injected into a vein (that's the whole point), it's entirely possible the infection is spreading throughout your vascular system, causing total-body sepsis. You most certainly have a localized infection. Get your butt to your primary care physician.
