Injection site soreness

**Tryin2getHUGE** · 06-16-2004, 01:50 PM

Hey got a quick question for you guys about a lump at the injection site. I'm doing injections eod of test and 2 times a week of deca all in my glutes alternating sides. After my injection Tuesday morning I worked legs Tuesday night. When I woke up Wednesday I noticed what appeared to be one lump on each side. However, they not sore or like the normal pinch from the injection, and they weren't tiny and just where the injection went, it was pretty big almost like a muscle. Is it possible that it is my glute muscles from doing legs and not from the injection? Once again guys thanks for your help.

p.s. If it is from the injections what do you guys recommend?

Yep its from injections it will most likely go away you should rotate injection sites especially if you are sticking yourself eod I stick every day and use glute quad all 3 heads of my delt bi tri occasionally trap muscles.

Dunno about the current problem but you might want to find a couple new injection sites, or you are gonna get some nasty scar tissue in the long run. I used delts but dont like them. Also try pecs, quads etc....

You need to inject in more places. I wouldn't hit the same spot more then once a week.

Don't use the same spot more than once a week. This is what you're getting a lump from. You need to let the micro tissue heal and 2 days is not enough time. I'm doing ED injects right now and use glutes, quads, Tri's, and Bi's although I find they're the most painful spot so far.

Well I just started the EOD with the test, and I was doing the deca 2x week. Ok I didnt know about letting the site rest. I will alternated tonight with the test. So you say I can hit my left and right glute 2x week and rotate for the rest of the shots? And I can use a 29 gause 1" for all non glutes right?

I guess, those shots are going to take forever though. The days you shoot deca and test you can combine them for one shot. You can hit each glute 1x per week (one poke per site per week).

I can draw the test, then draw the deca in the same syringe, them shoot them together as a 2cc inject?

I'd draw both with the same pin, then switch to shoot. Always shoot with a fresh pin.

Only time it ever hurt me is when I hit a nerve.

I'm guessing what it feels like having a big dagger rammed in. I really don't recommend it very much.

Use 23G or below (lower is better) for getting it out of amp or vial and then 23G or higher (I prefer 25G) for injection. This will greatly slow down injection which helps reduce soreness too. It is very difficult to draw up with a 25G pin tho.
