    Redness and swollen after 3days

    I did my first pin on Monday afternoon, I pinned on right quad test e, the next day the area was hot, red, and a slight swell. I'm a bit freaked because it's my first time. When I asked my buddy he said its normal for fist timers and the effects I discribed could last for up to six days. Does anybody else have any thoughts. I just did the other quad today.

    im no expert but sounds like it could be infection.. or you could be freaking out about nothing.. we dont actually know the severity unless we see it first hand. I say wait a week and if it goes away then cool, if not.. see a doc immediately.

    Has all the tell tail signs of an infection I've never been red or swollen.

    UGL gear? Go see a doc ASAP.

    Pain and soreness are normal, the heat and the redness are not. You're doing dbol, deca and test on your first cycle?
    How was the pinning, as far as the sterilization protocols used?

    Redness and heat at injection site is indications of infection, and nothing else. Just because you're body was able to fight it off, and you used sterilized stuff, doesn't mean it wasn't an infection.

    I am using UGL and have had no problems so far. It depends on the lab, and how they process it. Luck of the draw. It is risky, cause all it takes is one MRSA infected batch to **** you up.

    Low quality UGLs bro.. I no longer pin any homebrew, I only go for reputable expensive labs now and will never turn back. Considering you followed sterile procedure of course. NOW, quads can be tricky, took me a while to find my sweet spot on my quads. I agree the area being hot and red is a sign that the gear is a issue but I would pin my glutes next with a half cc of that gear and see how that goes. If the problem persists then you got a issue.
