    swelling after test enan

    alright ive been on my current cycle for 5 weeks now and i did a delt injection of 250mg of test e....and there is a slight swelling in my arm not in the injection area but in the middle of my bicept and tri, this happened last time injection was administered in that delt but went away after a few days but its bigger this time, no pain a slight soreness and a very slight redness, basically it feels like somone decked me in the arm without the bruise and pain. could this be caused by hittting a nerve, is this something i should have checked by a doctor or let it pass and see?

    Its kind of hard to say but if our having problems in that area i would definitely try shooting somewhere else... if your doing test e... just alternate glutes or quads.....

    oh, i totally suspect its because the needle length is not long enough. that tends to cause swelling every time. it could be something else though.

    it cant be the gear cause im sure it would have happened on my other delt right? im hoping its just a reaction case this didnt happen until injection #3 and #5 in that delt....and the swelling has nothing to do with the delt site, just strange

    Yes it could be the problem. AAS are meant to be injected deep IM.

    I tell ya what??? this is the exact reason I only shoot glutes... I bet you there is over 1000 posts on here about injection problems from delts and another 1000 posts about quads! why not just use your glutes and never have to worry about it?? Just my thoughts!

    Yeah after my 9th injection this morning I'm with you on that only hitting glutes here on out to many complications with shoulders and blood and swelling and stiffness its no good, plus i switched pins as well.
