Pain and Swelling after first sustanon 250 shot??

**Rocke** · 10-03-2009, 10:43 PM

Hey fellas,
This is the second time I have had a extremly sore glute after shooting 1ml yesterday. I also have swelling. I have done lots of research and was told to check out this site. I have heard people saying both way... with having problems and some having none. Just curious what ya think. Thanks much. I appreciate any help.

is it warm? red?

what gauge needle? what length?

new needle every time? new syringe every time? new loading needle every time?

clean the area properly every time?....

could be high BA content....

It doesnt feel warm and its not red but def. has some swelling and like I said its painful. I used a 22g x 1.5 needle and use a new syringe/needle every shot. I cleaned the area. Is it normal? And thanks for the reply nicotine!

22g is like a harpoon needle.

You should get some 25g... much better.

Sust will hurt a bit to inject. You'll get use to it quickly though. It's just minimal prop pain from the 30mg/mL in it..

ok, Well what about the swelling? Normal or no? Thanks guys!

**Vitruvian-Man** · 10-03-2009, 11:13 PM

yes it's normal.

IMO it'll go down in a couple of days...

For sus? that is an oil base. I wouldn't go lower than a 23g. If you need a 25 your a straight *****. Sorry but thats the truth. 22 is not that big. I use 21 in my shoulders.

Can be sore/painfull with sus with some people but you get used to it, can also be due to (virgin) muscle or the amount you are shootin and other reasons high ba content ect.
