I have had 4 injections and the last 3 I have had reactions, like a big bug bite.
Humira (Adalimumab) can cause injection site reactions, which may include redness, itching, pain, swelling, bleeding, or bruising at the site of injection. Some patients have reported that the medication burns upon injection, sometimes very badly. If these symptoms are severe or do not go away, it is important to consult Show Full Answer
I had them early on, but they stopped when I started popping a Benadryl about an hour before injecting and icing the area before and after injecting and dabbing on a little hydrocortisone. It really helped me and now I don’t need to do that. I was even getting recall reactions where I would inject in one thigh and the other thigh showed the reaction, but it all stopped in the first couple of months.

I’ve been on Humira awhile, never had any reaction to injection site. I give it in my stomach.
