Injection site red for and sore for about a week

[USATest]

Sorry for being a noob, but this is my first cycle and everytime Inject I get extremely sore, which I understand is normal for a first cycle. The soreness goes away gradually over 4 days or so. I've been getting what I understand to be Test flu because I feel very sick and lack energy for about 36 hours. What I'm concerned about is the red patch on my skin around the injection site, that lasts about a week. It's not hot to the touch though. I've been using the search engine and it looks like cellulitis but it is going away on its own, it might be nothing but everybody seems very helpful on this site so I thought I'd play it safe and ask. I'm guessing if it were cellulitis it wouldn't go away on its own. I'm taking every precaution to be sterile. I've had a lot of training through the Army on how give IV's and what not. I'm worried I got some bad stuff, although my buddies are doing fine on the same stuff. I'm taking 500mg of test e and 200mg of deca per week. It's from *******s. Any thoughts? Thanks a bunch.

You and ya m8s get ya gear through the same source? (dont mention source name or the make of the gear as not allowed here)

am guessing the make (as its stared out) but normally its good gear.

yeah, we all get it from the same place. This is even some of their 2nd and 3rd cycles from the same source. I live in Alaska and it was pretty cold here when the goods came in the mail (10 degrees Farenheit). I don't know if the temperature had any thing to do with it either.

There any crystals in ya gear?

You might just be mega sensitive to BA.

[USATest]

No, the gear looks pretty clean. I don't see any crystals.

[shifty_git]

Hmmmm then this is a tricky one. lol

The gears good, injections are being done properly and pins are a good size, no short esters must leave one of the following...

Sensitive to BA,
Virgin muscle and ya sensitive in general,
or ya injecting a little 2 fast...

Massage the area loads after each injection, maybe hold a heat pack on it for a few min as well.

How many shots you done so far? could try ya glutes and see if you have the same problem there.

yeah id def agree with getting it checked by a doc (say you were injecting b12 if talking to the doc about aas use is a prob)

but if its going after 4 days i think its something less serious...

The heat pack worked like a charm, shifty, thanks for your help.
