Rebif is famous because it has these possible injection sites problems. The most usual are redness, irritation and swelling. Of course, that can be very painful. Sometimes patients have developed skin infections but it’s very rare. If your injection sites become swollen and painful and it doesn’t heal within a few days you should ask for medical help.
