Hi Chaitali11

Please go back and see your Dr and explain the condition has got worse and spread tell them you felt some relief when you first had the steriod injection for 2 to 3 days but this has now gone and what can you now have to deal with the inflammation and pain going forward on a more regular basis, many people with BD have many different medications daily to manage such pain and inflammation you should not suffer please go and get some help soon.

I sit in the bath with lavendar and Epsom salt. It helps quite a bit. I also rub franckencense oil. Just make sure it doesn't give you a rash. It's supposed to take down the inflammation.
