Delt Injection = Bicep soreness?

**kbox80** · 12-18-2006, 09:39 PM

I had this problem once before when I did my quad. This is my first cycle.
Week 1 - Both Glutes
Week 2 - Quads
Week 3 - Glutes
Week 4 - Quads
Week 5 - Delts

I did my left delt and it was just a little sore around the injection area, after i did my right one, my bicep is sore now (2 days later) not the injection site. I did arms the other day with the soreness and i can still max out and the pain goes away after the second or third rep, but its just an annoying feeling that ive had for a few days.

I had this problem once before when i did my quad injection on week 4, the site where i injected didnt hurt, but my knee and the muscle right where it touches the knee was SOOOO sore. Fluid built up around my knee and i had limited range of motion.

Is this an infection? Or just virgin muscle soreness? it just seems weird that I am getting sore in the muscles below where i inject.

I have the same experience as you, as well do others. I think what happens is that the fluid from the injection travels down the space formed by the fascia that surrounds the muscle. This space is called a compartment. It seems to flow down with gravity and then stop at the boundary of the compartment. I did a quad yesterday, about midway down my vastus lateralis( side of thigh) and it hurts right down by my kneecap. Nothing to worry about, I think.

Does that mean it absorbed effectively then? Haha i cannot tell if its like my body fighting it or not (since its warm)

You'll be fine. I too sometimes experience soreness or a bit of redness and warmth off location from the injection site...I assume it's just the bodys' reaction to the injection. It should subside in a day or so, if not you may have a problem.

Could you treat it like a regular bruise or muscle swelling, just like ice it for the first day or so then heat it? I dont know if that will treat it or just be a waste of time.

I use icyhot when I get muscle soreness or stiffness from an injection. seems to help losen up the sore tight muscle. I have had this happen in different areas than the injection also. Might happen once every eight or so injections for me.

Damn...sorry to hear that...is that pic in his avy the end result of the accident???

If so, that does not look good at all...that will require some major recovery time and extensive rehab. Even then, I assume it will never be the same.

Godspeed with your recovery Black R/T.

I think so.

The pic is confusing somewhat..
I believe thats alot of road rash
as well,with as a fractured fibula.

Good luck RT
