Lumps at injection sites, what to do?

***SPIKE*** · 09-01-2005, 07:07 AM

I have been using gear for about 5 years on and off now. I have never experienced lumps at my injection sites. Sometimes maybe a bruise or a tiny lump but nothing serious. This time around its a little different.
I just started my new cycle that will last about 16 weeks. I'm frontloading this time so I'm injecting 250mgs Test E and 100mgs EQ in one syringe ED for 6 days. Today is day 4 and I"m not looking forward to it. So far I've done once in each glute and once in the quad. But the injection from yesterday in the glute is killing me. I feel like I"m sitting on a golf ball!!!!
Anyone else every experience large welts like this???
-The gear is great, all BD.
-Injections are done after showering and VERY sterile.

Any suggestions???

maybe just a build up of the oil give it a few days to see if goes down

Hopefully its just that, I'm hoping so.

I'm using a 23gauge 1.5" pin in the glute. And a 25gauge 1" in the quad. Making sure to get in nice and deep.

Are you swabbing with alcohol?

Are you going deep enough into the muscle?

After injection, try massaging the site for a minute. Just put some pressure on it and rub in a circular motion.

Actually I have a similar problem.Mine is with any form of TEST.I can shoot anything else without issue,but Test inflames any muscle I shoot in.
This happened to me after a 25 week Prop/Fina cycle.The last week of the cycle,every day I injected the Prop,the muscle would swell,get red,and a mild fever would come on.After a week of that,I terminated the cycle.Gave myself some time off,and Test is still a problem for me.Deca ,or you name it,doesn't bother me.I've yet to hear an explanation as to why TEST is effecting my muscles in this manner.

Thought I'd share.

Your input is always appreciated.

Well.............I guess theres nothing to do but wait now. I'm going to do my opposite quad now. Just hoping the swelling will go down on the Glute. It's actually not physically swollen where it looks like somethings wrong. Just sore to the touch and hard.

Thanks for the input everyone.

1. Yes
2. Definitely
3. Do that as well. I'll try to massage it in a little longer this time. 2cc's a day for 6 days is rough. Both on me and the body.

Thanks for the input bro

I hope what's happening to me isn't happening to you as well bro.I've read of some similar stories like yours and mine alike.
I'm curious to see if this persisits with you.

Good luck in the mean time.

This is actually the 1st time this has happened to me. Hopefully it's not an absess and a 1 time thing.

Jay I'm pretty sure he is right.... My the cycle i'm on now with prop did that to me... My very first shot was a world of pain and i have a big LUMP in my ass for 6 days... I used a heating pad to try to disburst the oil, however i do not think that helped. Man was it a bitch sitting down.... I came to the conclusion that i didn't go deep enough with my injection which lead to the pocket of oil. However its all good now. I'm sure its just a matter of time...

Change sites and don't come back to that for almost a week and it should be gone.

Yea I'm going to try to stay away from there for a while. I cant even go anywhere close to there anyway. My Girl friend likes to grab my ass a lot too. Can't let her find out, you know that will lead too

Glad to hear it cleared up with you RR. I'm hoping the same happends to me. Thanks a lot.

**big_C** · 09-01-2005, 05:51 PM

the bruising might be you just knicked a vein, make sure to swab, and after pin is in, draw back to see if you get blood

That is a MUST on every intramusclar injection. I'm glad you mentioned that C.

Dam!!!!!! I hope I didnt Jinx you!!!!!!!

You're both right about not going to that sme spot. But when you're doing 2cc's a day ED I prefer to stay in the glute then the quad. I'll live though. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!
