    1st cycle pip help - Pictures included!

    Did my first glute injection no problems!
    Did my second on my left glute which was tricky!
    Having very bad pip from the left glute.
    My question is should I be worried about this or is it normal?
    Here is the rest of the info!

    The star is where I inserted the needle at an angle therefore
    the arrow tip is where the needle tip would have injected the test.
    The circle is the area which is red and swolen and slightly hard to touch. (Not hot to touch)
    It has been like this for 4 days now. Slightly getting better each day but still very sore.

    Is this just trauma from a bad angled jab & virgin muscle or possibility of anything else such as infection?
    Using 1ml of test-e 300mg with 1&1/4 needle 23g
    Thanks

    Could be a few things. Shaky hands tear muscle. Or just virgin muscle. If it isn't gone in another 4 days then I'd worry.

    Hopefully! Just wondering what else it could be!
    Really doubt it's infected as I swabbed the injection site very well and used a different needle for drawing and injecting! :/

    300mg is a fairly high concentration and the more concentrated your gear, the slower the absorption. T400 causes me the worst PIP (still). I don't get any PIP from any other gear. T300 is probably stronger than I would recommend on a first cycle.

    Be sure to rotate to other muscles to give your previous areas time to heal. In inject in the following areas:

    - traps
    - pecs
    - quads
    - glutes
    - triceps
    - delts

    Could be the amount of ba... and shakey hands!! If your doing it clean and tidy... very slim chance of infection.
    My dead legs last about 3-4 days!

    Sometimes you have good shots, and sometimes you have bad shots. It's part of the game.
