    First injection to delts, problems! help please!

    Yesterday I took my first injection to the delts. I took half a ml of test E, usually I shoot the glutes. I had a proffesional MA(medical assistant) do it for me. Today its sore as**** and it has a really big ablong knot at the site and below. What do you guys think? Another doctor from africa told me I might have cliped a vein, but I she aspirated so I dont think she did. '
    Any input would be helpfull thank you.

    it could just be swollen and the oil sitting in ur delt causing that. i have had something similar to what ur desctibing and after a few days it went away. u should probably be fine. someone else will kno for sure

    nothing to be concerned about yet. I've had gear put huge lumps on various parts of my body that lasted up to 1 week. Strange that it was only .5cc but I guess everyone's different. Also, you can clip veins while still injecting into muscle. I must have done it 100 times myself.

    If I were you I'd learn to inject myself, it'll make life much easier on you. Keep an eye on your shoulder, if it gets read and even more swollen and you get a fever then go to a doc. But I don't think it'll come to that. Sounds pretty normal to me.

    Yea It was a brand new spot thats what I figured. So any suggestions on what to do in the mean time, should I heat it and try to rub it out. It also seems strange to me that it was only .5cc's but like I said it was a pro that did it so the injection went smoothly but the day after it has the huge lump. SYMATECH I work with the girl that shoots me and when I try a new spot I let her do it first to teach me. Im just paranoid so I do shoot myself just not in new spots. thank you for the quick feedback and if there is anymore comments please post.

    I think what you are experiencing is fairly common. It should be nothing to worry about, it will go down soon.

    yeah the first time I ran prop I put ~1cc in my delt in the evening. The next morning not only was my whole shoulder red, but down my tricep and part of my bicep as well. It went away in about 5 days if I recall.

    The redness is also fairly common. It shoudn't spread though. It should defenitly feel a little better 3 - 4 days later. Don't stress yet.

    Yes go ahead and inject the other delt. Keep the rotation spots going because you will develop scar tissue over time. And if you think quad shots hurt, stay away from your traps at least at first.
