Default Reaction

The enigma is more along the lines of a bad reaction to the steroid. (There is no such reaction to a local anasthetic of equal volume) What type of pathology results in this response?

Does steroid take a longer time to be absorbed by the body while other substances are absorbed faster? Is this responsible for extra pressure (maybe more so in the presence of a lot of scar tissue) Just a hypothesis...

Mark, can you please bring it up with the doctor community when you have a chance?
