    Fluid around knee day after quad shot?

    anyone else ever experience this? I did an upper quad shot(same spot as usual) ... next day its so sore I have trouble walking. and looking in the mirror I noticed theres a good half inch of fluid around my knee. I actually had this once before from a prop shot couple years back. Pinning suspension and winny now ed. just wondering what may be the main cause. I did notice when I took my pants off later a little trail of dried blood mixed with the gear....


    just a bad shot or what? the 5 other pins ive done have been pretty smooth and had a lil pip next few days

    any advice as to get it better faster?

    thanks

    This is happening to me now.

    I'm not sure how to get rid of it but it happens to me no matter where I pin my quads

    Probably injected too fast and not deep enough. Oil can leak and pile up down there. If it's really painful it probably crashed.

    First time it happened while back I was using prop that had crystals in it (except when I warmed it up.) I assume that gear had crashed.

    Both my winny and suspension I'm pinning now is water based and has bigger particles in it. Fits through a 23 gauge, but has probs with 25( so not too bad particles like I read on before).

    Only spot I have to pin now that isn't sore is other quad. Dammit! Lol

    Are quads the most painful by majority consensus? Besides delts and Glutes alot of people newer to the game haven't tried the other sites. I know everyone's body reacts differently but to the vets, besides delts and Glutes, if quads are too painful what would be the least painful next injection site? I'm personally thinking biceps because you could probably use a slin pin but I dunno?

    Glutes (ventro) are certainly my least painful site. I also pin quads, delts, and bi's. Some of my most painful injects, have been bi's. Even with a 29g 1/2" slin... They all get better, with experience.

    First time I hit a quad, I stupidly went for my teardrop... Leg swole up like a hot water bottle! Think I hit a nerve. Took 5 days to go back down. Gear wasn't the issue...
