It's a list of possible side effects after receiving an steroid injection. I do understand what "steroid flare-up" is, but I do not know the exact term in Spanish. Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

reacción adversa a la inyección de esteroides
There are some side effects that are possible when you get a cortisone shot. I never experienced them, but you should be aware: "The most common side-effect is a ‘steroid flare.’ This is a condition where the injected cortisone crystalizes and can cause a brief period of pain worse than before the shot. This usually lasts a day or so and is best treated by icing the injected area
flare up
v.- encender | exacerbar | empeorar | agravar
If the injected joint becomes very painful, red, or swollen seek medical attention immediately as the joint may be infected. As your doctor has explained, one of the very rare (1 in 15,000) risks of a joint injection is infection. If the joint is infected it is very important to seek medical attention as soon as possible.
However, the most common cause of these symptoms is a reaction to the injected steroid (“steroid flare”) which occurs in 2 to 5% of patients. A “steroid flare” usually begins 6-12 hours after the injection and may last for 2-3 days. Regardless of the cause, it is important to see a physician with these symptoms.

recrudecimiento de los efectos (de los esteroides)
Quizás esta sería una forma de expresarlo, suerte y buenas noches.
"What is steroid flare-up?
I have had a cortisone injection in my foot for Morton's Neuroma and 2 weeks later the pain is worse. Is this steroid flare up?
With steroid use there is the potential to develop local side effects to the corticosteroid injections. The possibility of an
increase in discomfort within 48 hours of the injection is
known as a “steroid flare-up.”
This is a localized reaction to the crystal suspension and is characterized by an increase in pain and swelling at the injection site.
Approximately 2-10% of the population, receiving these injections, has reported this reaction.

Exacerbación de los síntomas/el dolor/la inflamación debido a/producto de los esteroides
Lo que aumenta o se exacerba es el síntoma inicial (el dolor/inflamación/etc) debido a la cristalización del fármaco inyectado en la articulación; no el efecto del esteroide.
Efectivamente es una reacción adversa a la inyección; por lo tanto Rosa y Carlos también están en lo correcto.
