Severe Delt Pain

[edman44]

I took a shot in my right deltoid, and 2 days later, a shot in my left deltoid. I am 8 weeks into my first cycle. The 1st 8 weeks i was injecting into glute muscles. my delts hurt so bad i can't even dream of lifting right now. it's been hard for me to even get a good night sleep, i keep waking up due to delt pain. it's been 4 days since my first delt injection. do pain patches work for this type of problem? how can i prevent this from happening again if i want to continue delt injections?

That sounds weird. My fave is the delt. The only time it ever hurt was when I put winny in it, that SUCKED BAD! Try sum ibuprofin for anti inflamatory, delt inj 22, 23g hell even a 25g pin I use 1 1/2" for everything.

when i did my test prop cycle my shots some hurt for a couple days but they weren't so bad that i couldn't train. apparently test prop is the most painful ester so that might be why.. if you didn't have trouble with glutes just go back to that.

What are you injecting? also if you went from glute to delt did you use the same length needle? You should be pinning 1 1/2" for your glutes and 1" for your delts. If you went in too far that could be the cause of the pain.

i injected 2 cc prop and 1 cc trem filled into same syringe... (25 1 inch). i know it's a lot for 1st time delt injection. i used lots of biofreeze on shoulders today and was able to get a good shoulder workout in. i warmed up with light weight for about 15 minutes and that really helped. i'm going to stay away from that area for a few days and let all the pain go away before going back. tomorrow is biceps using 5/8 inch 25 guage.

I shot whinny in delts before and it was hell!

I hear biceps are painful too bro!

I would be skeptical of shooting that much into the delt unless you got some huge @$$ shoulders.

That is alot of oil for delt (depending on your build). I would ditch the delts and try quads. Bigger muscle will handle the oil better.

agreed....i wanted to avoid quads but ffter starting a prop cycle i realized no place was off limits cus of the frequent injections.....quads are now my favorite place....they are the least painfull imho....
