Small Rash Near Injection

I started Copaxone on May 3rd. I was getting a small rash for the 10 minutes following injections and then it would go away. However, this week in my legs I have a small rash around the injection site that is sticking around. It isn't too bothersome, just wondering if this is normal or not? My Monday rash is getting a little bit better, but I woke up this morning and noticed a very small rash around yesterday's injection. Wondering if it could be just the location that I placed the injection into?

@rayrayjean , it could possibly be just an unfortunate shot. Do maintain a disciplined rotation of injection sites, to minimise problems.

When I was on copaxone I also had a rash that stayed for a few days around my injection site! It does go away within a few days... we’ll it did for me anyways :) I mostly got the rash on my thighs and stomach pretty much every time I injected, don’t think it’s anything to worry about but if you have any questions contact your MS nurse to put your mind at ease.
