    worried about infection

    Is it possiboe that I JUST slightly hit a nerve during an injection? I injected into my left glute for the first time at 1am on thursday and had a weird jerk back sensation......felt no pain so I just fully pushed, aspirated and injected all the oil. It was slightly more to the middle of my glute but still within the outer top area of the muscle.

    It is now Sunday and I woke up with a red area surrounding the injection site. Is this an infection? I thoroughly cleaned before and after and had no problem on my right glute with the same gear.

    This was my 3rd injection of my cycle and I cannot afford to have an infection

    Just keep a close eye on it. If it starts getting really red and warm to the touch go get on antibiotics.

    If it keeps getting worse and more painful then it might be an infection. As long as it's healing up, you should be fine.

    I've had that same thing happen, where one check was more sensitive then the other.

    It happens if you have virgin muscles or hit a new part of the muscle.
