Answer:

You should apply a cold pack to the injection on Jessicas's body. To deal with the swelling and pain in her muscle, before you start the injection, you can apply a cold pack a few minutes before. Sometimes a cold pack application prior to the intramuscular injection can reduce the pain. Medicine can also be used to reduce the pain and inflammation such as paracetamol, NSAID
