You run a bare needle under a running tap? That makes your needle not sterile you know?

[Igifuno]

You're de-sterilizing your pin by doing that as BIB said. Don't do that. You don't need to do anything to the needle, it comes sterile.

If your gear is thick then you can try warming it by running it under warm water for a minute.

I was hop[eing he explained himself wrong and actually ran the barrell under warm water while keeping the pin covered..............

I'm still hoping that's what he means......,.

Your lucky you are not in the hospital with a infection bro.

[PistolPete33]

OP- Did you run the syringe under the faucet or the actual needle that you injected? There is all kinds of bacteria in tap water that you DON'T want to be injecting into your body.

Bro there could be many reason why your ass cheek is very swollen after injection imo un proper sterilization, injection etc. I would go see a doctor just to be safe and keep a very close eye on it if the swelling injection site worsens.

You sure that idea came from here???

Can you provide more feedback about the location of injection and the reaction you're having? Where exactly was the injection? It almost sounds like you injected it in the fatty tissue not the muscle.

What does the area look like? Redness? Warm to touch? Is the injected area hard or does it feel like there may be firmness to the central area of injection? Any fever or general malaise associated with the reaction?

Like the others have said, never ever touch or introduce anything onto a sterile needle. The risk of infection increases dramatically.

May be a little premature to run to a doctor. Can you provide more details?

if it came from.here it come from an idiot and not a vet.

if you read it from a vet you misunderstood what he was trying to say.

doing that is very dangerous.

what I was doing for my thick gear, I was putting my vial in a bowl of water(or course the top never touched the water) about 1 cm of boiling water. let it there for about 30sec.
and doing my injection, it greatly helped me.

[Cuz]

yea bro never uncap the needle, when.u do its.no longer.sterile, just heat the barrell or heat the.vial if you do. all this does is make the oil thinner where its easier to draw up in the syringe and obviously disperse more when it hits tissue...you could be injecting too much into the same spot, are u alternating injection sites?

[Wizwell]

I also would assume he meant the syringe and not the needle.
1ml test / 1ml deca , twice weekly, first cycle? Brave boy!

thats exactly what i do...but how do i run the syringe under the tap without the water touching the needle?

[hussein84]

yes needle on with cap on it.. is this still bad?

but i switched needle after tap run...

im alright now...it wasnt sore or red or warm ..no temperature either.but definitly very firm..hard basically...made my top corner of my ass pretty damn big though...but like i said no pain or redness or fever.
i was taught to inject into like this...asif there was an invisible line down ur ass cheek and across ur cheek...i inject in to the corner closes to the centre but in the section closest to the hip..sorry difficult to explain in writing.

wouldnt the vial crack in boiling water? dont u mean syringe?

2ml each injection.. twica a week...alternating left n right cheek... just read on here i need to be alternating in other musclles too so will change mext pin.

1ml test / 1ml deca, twice weekly, first cycle? Brave boy!

why brave? is this bad?

[EasyDoesIt]

I have never had a need to do any of this. Guess if i felt i wanted to make the gear thinner by warming it up i would take a little rag, run under warm water then hold it around the barrel for a minute. I would not let that rag touch the plunger tho or anywhere else. Guess i'm lucky, my process is just dab rubber top on vial with ready made alcohol pad, take a new one and disinfect area to inject, then inject slowly. Another new alcohol swab to clean and massage injected area and BOOM I'm done. Most of the time i place a small bandage over the area.

[DawgHouse]

in the future id warm up the gear in the bottle it came in.... not in the syringe

Would probably be safer, less chance of anything screwing up by mishandling syringe. I do not know anything about mfg. gear. Would heating the bottle 10 times have an effect on the gear? I have red to heat if cloudy, but i have no experience with it. I'm never bothered with injecting and do not seem to have issues like i have read others do.
