    Absess- newbie to gear

    Newbie to gear. Know a lot about training and nutrition.

    I am newbie to gear. I started first cycle last week. I messed up with injections. Got scared bout the sciatic nerve. I went to high on my glute. Developed an absess on both sides. One seems to be going down. the other is still sore and big. These just go down on there own? Should I see a doc? I really don't go to doctors often. Will this stay forever?

    You are supposed to be high on the glute.....but Not at your lower back....

    Bro you need to look at the pictures of proper injections and do some homework before blindly sticking needles into your body.

    What are you injecting, what is the amount you are injecting? Do you know how high the BA (alcohol) % is in what you are injecting? You may just be having a reaction to the BA. You could mix something in like Sterile Oil, EQ, B12, etc to reduce the % of BA and maybe you would have a better reaction.

    An abscess is an infection. I have had what you are describing a few times from High BA %. It will go down in a few days max. You would know if you have an abscess, read below:


    Abscess Overview

    An abscess is a tender, easily pressed mass generally surrounded by a colored area from pink to deep red. The middle of an abscess is full of pus and debris.

    Painful and warm to touch, abscesses can show up any place on your body.

    Unlike other infections, antibiotics alone will not cure an abscess. In general an abscess must open and drain in order for it to improve. Sometimes draining occurs on its own, but generally it must be opened by a doctor in a procedure called incision and drainage.
