A lump on my glut/injection site lump

As the title says lump at the injection site.

So i started taking testosterone e 500 mg per week 2 injections per week.

last Wednesday was my first injection used 23g needle 1 inch next morning i had a lump at the injection site.

Second injection Sunday the lump that i got from Wednesdays injection was a lot smaller , however i had to inject Sunday again my second injection i used the same side. The lump is still there....

HELP ! ! ! is this serous should i go to the hospital or is this just because this is first injection reaction.

Should i rotate and use my other glute to inject today ? Really i am losing sleep over this.

This is your first cycle isn't it? It seems you're trolling, but I know you're serious. Rotate sites and don't pin the same muscle back to back to start. Once you've cycled a few times you'll be able to pin more frequently. Dont overreact and give yourself a panic attack. You're fine and this is perfectly normal. Lol. We've all been there. If you are overweight, you might want to consider a longer needle as well.

If it's not red and inflammed, no present fever, get over it and deal with it princess. Stop pinning virgin muscle in the same spot, you will just make it worse, alternate bro

23ga is big 'ol needle. You've probably bled inside the muscle. It's not a big deal. It'll just take a few days for the blood to be absorbed. Use a smaller needle, like a 26ga, and save yourself a scare.

Definitely alternate.

Also, I warm it up and take my time on the injection. Goes really well, fewer "issues" and I found for me my delts were a good site.
