Injection Stung Like Hell

[tempbrit]

Injected into my right quad last night and tried to go a bit higher than I have done in the past. I injected and it stung like a mofo and kept getting worse. I pulled out swapped needles and went a bit lower with no problems.

Anyone ever have this happen? What caused this?

Two pokes to get a single injection done really kind of sucks.

I've done that before bro but I kept using the same needle, it's crazy because my first try I really tried shoving it in but it wouldn't go in but a centimeter, my second try went in after a couple of seconds of pure pain...............

Yes, it has happened. Once from not letting the alcohol evaporate the other from hitting a nerve I think.

I think it could have been the alcohol. I guess I should not complain. I have now down approximately 20 injections and only had two painful injections....first time...hit a nerve in the delt and second the stinging described above.

Not bad odds.

[Mesomorphyl]

20 huh? I have had hundreds of injects and only challenges with a few... You will get better and learn about your own body as it relates to injects.

[tempbrit]

Yeah, I figure my odds will improve as I get more practice. The first shot took me nearly 2.5 hours to pull off. The last two are in the 1-0-15 minute range.

Things are getting better. I guess they have to now that I am doing daily injections with Fina.

Its happened to me as well. I think Tempbrit was right. Try letting the alcohol dry before you shoot. Just wait a couple more seconds. I know, it stings like a biatch!!
