I can deal with an injection fine, but the day and two after it the muscle I shot in (mainly my quads) gets painful. I cannot contract the muscle and also with quads I can have trouble walking...something has to be wrong. My glutes hurts, but I can deal with that pain.
What do you guys do?
don't inject your quads. but heating the oil before the shot helps, and keep massaging and hit the site
massage the inject site after you shoot....then just tough it out...sometimes my quad injects hurt like a mofo, and i'll ride the bike here and there to loosen it up

I usually just message the site with a lot of pressure when im laying in bed before I go to sleep then stretch it in the morning

yeah, but he should be able to...something else must be wrong, injecting too fast, injecting too much, injecting in wrong spot, etcQuote:

I would use my glutes exclusively, but I want some injection site rotation. I think I might try the pecs, but I am afraid I will stab my lung or heart. heh.
I was told after you pull then needle out, dont put alcohol on the spot, just a dry cotton ball..I was using alcohol soaked ones, does this cause any more pain?
I am going to slow inject for sure, I was only using 1mL.Quote:

My last cycle I used winstrol depot, this time test e. Both hurt.Quote:

Try some of the suggestions and see if they help. I never have peoblem with Cyp or Enan. Is the test a higher mg from a UGL? That cause problems as well.Quote:

true if he's not hitting the outter part of the muscle that could be itQuote:

(BTW I could just use my glutes for test e like I did in the past, but my next cycle I plan to use test prop and just want to get used to injection site rotation since I will be doing ED shots). Thanks for replys, I really do love AR forums. :wg:Quote:

i had some test prop that was soooo painful. everywhere I injected it got swolen and I could not use the muscle. I made the prop and filtered it with a .45 size filter. Just recently I got a .20 size filter and refilters some of it. I have done two injections, 1 in my quad and 1 in my shoulder. There is only a slight soreness, nothing like it was before. Prehaps you oil needs to be filtered with a smaller filter.Quote:

i was getting quad pain... i was lnjecting to close the the front of my leg... my bro told me to go more toward the outside of my leg, halfway between my hip and knee. One inch over, no pain. One inch to the front, i couldnt walk. For me, i was to close to the edge of the muscle that i shot into, and thats not very pleasant.
Stab fast and inject slow. I do that and normally dont have any pain the next day.
