Not necessarily an abcess. He may have injected too fast, Could be the prop in the sust, Add heat and massage the area. Keep an eye on it for a day or two so it does not get worse. If no improvement in a day or two, then seek medical attention.

I agree with the above.

How does the heat help?

[Bigmax]

The heat brings blood to the area...The blood in the area will help dispurse the and break up the lump.

thanks for the help

[Cornholio]

That makes sense. Should you use heat after every shot?

[Cornholio]

Also how long should you apply heat?

[SMAN12b]

Also how long should you apply heat?

Yes applying heat and massaging the area will help disperse the oil throughout the muscle with each injection.
I inject then take a hot shower and massage while in shower.
If applying heat, 15-20 min should be enough, but you can do it several times a day if the area still hurts

Hope this helps

cool i got a heating pad on right now on high

[ODC0717]

bump the heating pad. I'd have many a limp days had it not been for one of these fine creations. I personally only use the heating pad when needed. Sometimes when I shoot in my quads I'll hit a spot where it dosen't agree and I'll be sore for a few days afterwards. Delts and tris are two places where I've never had to use a heating pad.

you can also run the hot water on the site while you take a shower ....just aim the hot water (as hot as you can take it) right on the site and let the water hit it for a while ...feels good.
