needle size advice

as i said before i have been having some pain at the injection site , just verry sore. I am using a 19 g 1&1/2 in needled in my lateral thighs pushing 2 cc at a time of tren and test prop, could the needle be to big there by making me sore? what size would you suggest? thanks. sorry if this thread was put in the wrong post, i thought i was in the lab.

This is not a flame, just a question for you....have you searched at all on this?

There are many threads on here that mention needle size. Most don't even recommend an 18g for drawing from the vial...too big and pokes holes in the rubber. Most draw with a 20-21g & inject with a 21-25g.

To clarify....there is no way in **** that I would be stabbing my thigh with a 19g 1.5" pin. I draw with a 21, and hit my thigh with either a 23g or 25g 1 incher.

Of course, Prop is known to be a bit painfull.

you might as well be using a javelin to stab your leg...i use 25g on thigh and 23 on glute.

That is like saying you swabed the tip of a dager w juice and shoved it in. 23 are the minimum for me. Hope you don't have too much scar tissue.

19 gage?! Why? To big! Use 22 or 23 gage and I think you will like it much better.

but like everyone said...23g will suit you just fine - i actually use 25g on most of my injects, except for glutes...

HOW BIG IS THE NEEDLE???

22 gauge is the biggest you'd ever have to use...unless you like ramming pens into your thigh.
