    Thigh Injection Swollen

    I have been injecting rotating both my left and right thigh the last 6 months, I take two shots a week testosterone cypionate TRT. Never had any problems.
    I injected on Wednesday with no problem and on thursday (yesterday) I woke up with pain in my injection site and did a nice leg workout at the gym even tho in pain... Today I wake up and the site is swollen, not red. I can barely walk and it hurts like never before... Do I use ice or a hot packet?? I was using Ice this morning. Maybe an abcess? Or nerve? I didn't have any shooting pain... Maybe a ligament?
    I inject using 1inch 25gauge on my thighs.

    Thanks Guys!

    I use 1" 25g on thighs as well. It takes a while to finish and then I leave it in for about 30 seconds afterwards to lessen chance of leakage. Point being it is easy to become too relaxed and casual about the whole thing and move or flex your thigh in the process. Or pull skin to the side too much before inserting. A small tear compounded by a hard leg workout could cause your symptoms. Take it easy on the leg and keep a vigilant eye out for infection.
