Pain, hardness and swelling at injection site

**Mike8212** · 07-17-2013, 09:55 PM

I am taking what is supposed to be test cyp twice a week. Injection site is quite painful, feels harder and looks a little larger than my other a$$ cheek. Started cycle 4 weeks ago and switched from prop to cyp a week ago. Almost every pin has been sore afterwards but this is the worst and longest lasting. Been like this for three days now. Any ideas? should I just wait it out?

BTW it is not red or warm to the touch.

Happens all the time. Especially if this is your first cycle. I actually had it worse about 4 weeks ago. Had lump, with swelling, redness and hot to touch. Had to get AB. But what you have is normal. I stopped pinning in glutes because it was always uncomfortable to sleep and sit down. I pin delts and chest now

Happened to me today, I injected my shoulder for the first time 2 days ago and woke up with pain.. took Ibuprofen at 800mg and was able to do arms today. My guess is it happen because it was a "virgin muscle" it takes time for my body to get used to the injections.

You'll have to wait it out...pinned hip five days ago (tren A) and can just now walk w/o a limp. Funny thing....it wasn't even a virgin muscle. I've pinned that location twice this cycle before. Must have gone too fast and it balled up. I still have a pretty good muscle knot that I am trying to work out with a ball and foam roller.

you have to shoot it real slow, it usually takes me a full minute sometimes even longer, don't move the needle either.

Virgin muscles. Kind of ironic it is the cyp offering the worst pain, compared to prop. But, these guys are likely just not brewing good stuff. Following my first cycle, the only time I get pain is when I'm running clen , and that happens to be due to me shaking like a leaf when injecting. Lol, good times.

Here's the deal. I just keep telling you guys. It happens, it just happens. As long as no infection then bone up and ride with it.
I have had mega shots, no pain, no soreness, nothing. One on top of the other.
Then I have had some that hurt lick a MF from start to days after. I have had any number of different senarios of pain, lumps, black n blue , couldn't sit, hard to move, to NOTHING OVER AND OVER.
The reasons , well ??? just varied. Dull point, wiggle the needle, moved it in and out, a strong concentrate...you name it.
So what's up huh that the way it goes. We inject over and over and each time it has the possibility to be different. How many people get so many injections. Ask the sick people in the hospital and they will tell you like I did. One's good, and one's not so good.

My saying :"This is not rocket science" you are stabbing your body with a sharp object and piercing the flesh and muscle fibers and pumping 1cc or more of foreign liquid in it and not just once.
Really is this too much to comprehend. Get over it and quit questioning it. If it's hot go to the doctor and get medicine. ...crazy mike

it's especially important to avoid infections.
i'd say it's very possible it looks larger, if it's swollen.

**tattoo449** · 07-20-2013, 10:55 AM

Ditto what mike said. Sometimes it hurts more than others. Sometimes not at all. As long as as its not hot and appears to be an infliction. I deal with it.

No, I found it ironic cyp was offering any pain. Generally, cyp and enan are almost impossible to **** up and make painful gear in the brewing process. Usually it is prop that UGLs **** up and make painful.
