“Soreness where radioactive materials was injected. Is this a side effect?”
After being injected with a radioactive liquid for my scan, but now I'm feeling a lot of soreness in that area. Is that a side effect?

Soreness and mild sensation of heaviness is not uncommon following IV administration of a radiotracer. It should subside within a few hours. If it doesn’t or worsens, you should consult your physician.
