    Does this sound like a hit nerve?

    Hey all, I had a injection go bad two days ago. It was a delt injection, 250mg/ml Test E.....one ml, not virgin uscle. Immediatly apon pulling out the needle and applying the swab I notice that the muscle knotted up very badly. If I lifted my arm laterally my middle delt head stuck up like a sore thumb....I applied a hot water bottle right away and the knot settled a bit. The next morning I had a nasty pain in my whole shoulder and its still sore and swollen. The gears clean as ive inj in that shoulder before this cycle?? Ive had issues with swelling before...im sensitive to gear, but never like this and never immediatly like that. It swole and knotted as I was injecting damn near? Opinions?? Cheers....

    Thank you for your input but that really has nothing to do with the question or what happened, this is not a matter of proper injection proceedures.....to the top!

    happened to me many a times actually, i got used to it a while ago...

    sometimes they dun hurt, then all of a sudden it hurts like hell right? like you cant lift you arm with your elbow up?

    the pain kinda extends a little lower below the shoulder kinda near the tri / bi in between area?

    if so, then all i know from my experience is ignore it for now, my injections got better after that one, it hurt for couple more jabs after too, but got used to it and the pain was getting easy to get used to, i just avoid working on delt the following two days until the pain is gone.

    might have built some scar tissue or possibly pushed through the muscle depositing oil around instead of in the muscle or you could also have punctured a tendon .most likely though you went through the muscle .ive done it a couple times once in my pecs and once
    in my delt .with delt shot i was to low when i injected and ended up wit very painful knot and on my pec i was to close to the breast bone and same thing very painful knot takes days to go away

    Sometimes ill hit a nerve in my quad. My whole quad will just tighten up..then finally release. Then it will hurt for a couple days.. Vs not hitting any nerve.

    Its usually not a problem.
