PROBLEM.... injection

[HeavyHitter]

Yesterday i took my normal shot of Test prop which i have been taking for about 4 weeks. It was a perfect injection, no pain, no blood, right spot- (upper right glute). When i woke up this morning, i had a red bump sticking out of my but (exactly like a bug bite). I know it can be common to get an absess (however you spell it) after a shot that you have to rub out... but this one is actually noticeable. The bump is also red which could mean infection.... Is there anything I can do, should know. Any body have this happen before.

Please give some input/advice!!! thanks

Your good! If you are on prop, how often are you taking shots? IF you have T-100 how many mg are you taking a week? Are you hitting anything else besides glutes?

Im taking shots EOD. I am only hitting my glutes. I tried the shoulder a couple of times... but it hinders my workout and i didnt like that. plus i have 5/8" needles which i dont think are long enough for my shoulders. Is it absolutely necessary to hit other muscles?

If you are doing EOD's, than yes you need to hit other muscles (scar tissue). 5/8" is good enough for your delts if you are not to fat. Instead of hindering your workouts with delt hits. Try and fiqure out a schedule for others like bi and calves. If you keep up with the delts, they will get use to injection.

u are using 5/8" needles in the glute ?

good question....... 5/8 is too short IMO. At least 1" and thats if you are lean

[HeavyHitter]

No... i have 1.5 inch needles for my glutes. The last time i hit my delt w/ the 5'8 inch it started leaking out my shoulder while i was still shooting. I will give it another try!! Thanks again. I will also check out those other inj spots. maybe my calves since i got none!!!!
