I had terrible skin irritations with all self-injectable drugs. Ice packs, I remember putting cortisone 10 cream on sometimes. But better check with your rheumy on that cream first.
Good luck. Hugs!

I’m supposed to be starting a new pill. Baricitinib 2 mg. Just approved by FDA
I’ve been on infusions but eventually had reactions to most of them or they lowered my immune system so much that I have chronic lung problems. I also have been taking prednisone for close to 2 decades.

You may do well on the infusable though. The one that worked the best for me was infusable orencia every 4 weeks.
