    Could have injected too fast, coulda gone through a blood vessel. A few possibilities. I personally wouldnt worry about it unless its red, sore and swollen for 4 days or more.

    well it its kinda red, bruise like color.. and i did inject very fast i do believe.... but the spot where i did my first injection (monday) still kinda hurts... could this be because its a virgin muscle? injected too fast.. moved aroudn when iwas injecting into my glute causing damage to other tissue?

    Watch the redness, check for hotness, you can try ice pack to avoid swelling. You can also try ibuprophen (sp)?? If you are still swelling, and their is hotness at the site go to the er. But give it a couple days, just tell em you shot some b-12, and think your having a reaction. Also are you alternating glutes? Give the area a few days between injecitons. I experienced some discomfort during my first cycle right after my first couple injections. But for sure keep an eye on the puffyness.

    I think i injected it too quick cause 2.5 ccs at a quick pace will mess you up lol.... and its puffy but doesnt seem hot.... im putting a heating pad on it everynight after i get home from work.... but it seems like the puffyness is almost horizontal like spread out.... if that makes sense.... and yes i did first shot on right glute, second on left.... 1st one wasnt a problem but a little pain... this one really isnt too bad but it seems like its red and bruising

    Yeah I think I read once that an average injeciton should take almost 5min. Keep us upadated though.
