    Bad injection....have question

    I did a mid-quad injection of test cyp as part of my TRT protocol. For some reason or another I forgot to aspirate , which resulted in a bit of bleeding shortly after taking the needle out. 2 days later, my thigh hurts like a b*tch and I have mild swelling and a bruise at the injection site. It's not red and inflamed...just looks and feels like a deep swell and feels like a deep muscle bruise. Should I be concerned? I can walk normally and it only hurts as a deep bruise would.

    No need to be worried, bleeding happens quite often for me. The bruise was most likely caused by movement of the needle, it will go away in a few days.

    It doesn't sound serious to me.

    Were you flexing the muscle as you were injecting? I've found that if I am not completely relaxed and the muscle is not contracting at all that I get some residual pain and soreness from injections.

    Your problems didn't come from forgetting to aspirate , but rather any movement that could have caused some internal tearing from the pin itself.

    Remember to aspirate and be very methodical next time!

    Good luck

    Bro just make sure it doesnt get red and hot to the touch...if that happens you'll need antibiotics immediately.

    Don't worry, prosthetics have come on a long way since the original wooden leg.

    If I nicked a vein, would that cause a little bit of internal bleeding and if a "pocket" of blood resulted would it eventually disperse into my body?
