About 78% of the skin complications have been occurred one month after the injection and more in the age group of 24-33(43.96%) . 25.8% of the cases had history of allergy to food and drug . 91.3% of the lesions belonged to injection place (hip and arm) and the rest (8.7%) was generalized . Lesions had been mostly started with itching of injecting area and then some erythema rashes and local edema have been added .In some cases edema and erythema involved the body surface completely. Conclusion: According to the present data it can be deduced that skin lesions probable mechanism is delayed hypersensitivity reaction.
