Anyone else get this at mtx injection site? It always appears about 3 days after and itches like crazy!! When it eventually goes away it leaves a darker area of skin. Happens on both legs?

I don't get the itchyness, thank goodness but did get a dark mark at the injection site once. There was no mark or bruising on the day but a couple of days later it appeared and is fading now four weeks later. If you're worried it would be a good idea to ask for a professional opinion. Wishing you well

I got that when I first started Enbrel but it settled after a few weeks and I started injecting into my tummy. Now I just get the patch of darker skin which seems to last for ages.
