Does Isotonic IV solutions cause a stinging sensation when administered?
Isotonic IV solutions, such as normal saline or lactated Ringer's solution, typically do not cause a stinging sensation upon administration. However, some patients may experience discomfort due to the size of the needle, the rate of infusion, or the presence of additives in the solution. If stinging occurs, it may be related to the infusion site or individual sensitivity rather than the isotonic solution itself. Proper technique and site selection can help minimize discomfort.

Is iv swelling at site okay?
Possibly an indicator of an infected IV site -- or that the IV either missed or pierced through the vein and the injectant was accidentally delivered at least partially subcutaneously instead of IV. If the site is red and hot to the touch I'd lean towards infected site, and act smartly. IV site infections can travel into the bloodstream. A cool bulge (at first), possibly with localized hematoma is indictative of a "miss". This may or may not require treatment depending on what was injected (tetracycline will sclerose at the injection site; normal saline will harmlessly absorb, for instance). In any case, move to another IV site with this patient. Also, if this is a SubQ "miss", note that the patient likely did not receive the proper dosage of whatever you were trying to inject.
