    Quad injections moves toward knee. painful?

    The last couple times I injected in my rt. quad, the gear moves somehow down toward my knee and swells up into a half a golf ball sized painful lump. Whats going on here. Am I missing or going under the muscle? Please advise if you know.

    I'm pinning about 6 inches from my kneecap and about 3 1/2 inches down from center line. I used the well know website that shows where to pin for a guideline to find the right spot. For quads I use 25g 5/8". Any ideas? This happened with both Test-Cyp from a pharmacy and with namebrand NPP. Also, I don't have huge quads or anything. I'm on an HRT blast, just trying to build back up from what I lost all those years with low T.

    your using to small of a pin. 5/8 is to short. You dont look very lean if that is you in your avy. You probably arent getting into the muscle. I would use alteast in inch
    If people can't tell your on steroids then your doing them wrong

    Ok, I figured it had to be something like that. I will move up to a longer pin, Thanks!!

    I forgot to ask, will it still absorb normally, or slower or what? Does anybody know. Seemed like the last time it was there for at least a week.
