    Pain after injections?

    All right ive been doing test enanthate on my 3rd week been swapping between ass and quads to inject but for a day or two after injection im getting pretty sore and a little swollen around the area?

    I think it might be either im a ***** and need to man up or inexperience and not the best at injecting any tips?

    the only problem with it is that my squats are struggling because off it!

    I have had some bad pain after injection. It is normal. As long as it does not swell up and turn red you should be fine. If you suspect an infection you should get it checked out ASAP. It is normal for some people to have a hard time walking after a quad shot every once in a while. I had one that lasted for 4 days, and the pain was about 6 inches below the injection site.

    Just be sure to inject with the needle at a 90 degree angle (needle tip on skin and rest of syringe perpendicular with flesh). Also, you can wait until the rubbing alcohol dries (don't wait too long). The last thing you can do is grab your nuts and drive on.

    Most likely, it's the standard injection pain. Here are a couple things that can reduce it.

    1) I notice a lot more pain with a 1cc, than .5cc. e.g. if you have the option, do .5cc every 3.5 days, rather than 1cc every 7.

    2) Inject slowly. At least 10 sec/cc.

    3) After injection. Massage the hell out of the area to circulate juice - hard, for 1 min. This makes a huge difference.

    4) Warm up vial pre-injection. Don't use microwave! I throw it in a sock/slipper and put it next to the radiator for 30 min.

    5) Pain tends to go about 6 inched lower in quad, so going too low (close to knee) can mean more pain.

    6) Don't wiggle or put any side to side pressure on pin when it's in - can damage tissue and hurt like a bitch later on.

    7) Get better at quick (not too fast), direct, straight motion.

    8) I haven't done delt, but people say it doesn't hurt as much.

    I've experimented with and without 1 and 3. With just these, the difference is huge.

    Read and re-read injection procedures. This is something you want to get good at.

    Happy Pinning.

    Question

    quick question for all you guys with injection pain, are you using human grade or underground lab compounds?

    Try injecting into your delt.
    I had pain in glute for days.
    No pain in delt at all. Just for about 10 mins but soon went away.
    Massage area well is a good tip.
    Haven't done quad and don't really want to yet.
    I am sticking with what works and thats the delt.
    I inject my GH into delt as well.

    No reason to inject fast. Do it slow. It should not hurt. It is easier to control when you go slow and firm.

    Number28, I am using human grade and have had 2 episodes of bad injection pain, but it was nothing to go to the doctor for.

    I have used so many different types of gear. And yes inject slowly. Once finished pull out slowly. And massage the area. If your shooting virgin muscle of course it will hurt a little more. If your doing that. Then what is in your gear?

    Now some gear contains a substance called EO. Ethyl Oleate. Which some people tend to react to different. I remember my first month on a lab who used it was definitely rougher. But it wasn't unbearable.

    what size pin did you use? is it just swollen and sore?

    a ckicken breast is quite a bit of swelling is red or warm to the touch?

  25. #25
    its about a 2.5 inch pin, I got a steroid kit from the local chemist, its been about 48hrs now, its warm to touch, I also have a slight tingling sensation in my hand, not constant but sometimes, there is a bruise round the pin mark. I have not been to the gym since it started hurting 24hrs ago, 24hrs after the injection. Its almost like someone has punched me really hard in the arm.

    I really could do with some usefull advice as its starting to worry me, should I go to the gym? I did just after the injection and all was fine????

    Should I go to casualty to get it checked out? Will they as loads of questions re Steroid abuse etc, will it go on my medical record that I have been injecting ????

    Aghhhhhh!!!

    Thanks!

    I would go see a doc and just get it checked. Bruising can happen, bu t the tingling and swelling are not typical reactions - for me. Depending on your doctor, he may or may not note it. My doctor would honor my request not to put something in my record like this. Doctors are much less worried about treating an infection as compared to bitching at you about taking them overall. So listen to the lecture and let him help you. Also, you'll need to figure out why you have an issue - is it your gear?

    i have had an anti inflamotory and it's soothed it a bit, so am goin to go to the gyma and see how It feels. I have used the same test 400 from the same bottle 4 or 5 times and not had a reaction like this. I'm thinking that maybe i pushed it in too quick, do you think that that may aggrevate the muscle to this degree?

    I am very happy to hear about your pain. Only because I pinned myself on sunday and can hardly walk. I can`t even hardly sit in the car with my wallet in my pants. I only ran 400 dec and 600 test. I hope it goes away soon.

    Good to hear!!!

    Never inject fast lol. Your damaging and stretching tissue when inject foreign substance in your muscle. It's very minor damage, but it will cause pain from the damaged cells.

    Inject slow and massage for a good 5 mins and everytime you think about it after that. also the more active you are the less pain you experience e.g. do some body sguats to promote bloodflow

    Cheers!

    I had this same pain on my first cycle, scare the he'll outta me, then by the end of the cycle it went away, now that I'm doing my 2nd cycle did my first shot the other day n 2 days later it hur like hell, you shoulda seen me tryin ta sit down, it was more of a roll into position kinda move. My roomate caught on and punched me in the ass, I prolly got another cycle before I get big enough to beat his ass but he's got one comin, for me the pain tends to last bout 3-4daysbut really not much at all after the first shot in each spot

    I tried a 25 gauge on my thigh, but could not get anything through the pin. I then used a 21 on my glutes. I want to know if a 23 gauge would work better and hurt less on either spot.

    Try warming up the test by running some hot water over it or hold it under ur arm pit for a while. And if u want u can even use a larger pin to draw an then go back to ur regular one to pin urself, plus that way your not using the needle thats been dulled from going through the rubber of the vial. Not a huge difference but if ur having trouble it definitely helps.
