HELP! SubQ lump 4 days later???

**liftin4life** · 12-14-2006, 03:49 PM

I injected .25ml of PGF2a subQ on Sunday afternoon. It was red and there was a lump and burning (as expected from what I've read). Well..it went down and seemed to improve. NOW...it's larger again and hot. How do I know if it is infected?

Should I stick it and draw? Should I use a hot washcloth???

That would only elevate the problem if its an infection. Seek a doctor.

Damn damn damn. This is no good. "I was doing a b-12 shot subq and now there's a lump". Urgent Care? I don't know what to do!

no bro on this board can tell you if you have an infection or not, as we are not docs and it makes it more difficult b/c we cant see it ourselves and we are going by only what your saying through posts

all in all, if you feel uncomfortable and if you think you have an infection it would be in your interest to seek a doctor, the sooner the better bro
