    Yet another pain question..

    Hey guys, long time reader first time poster here.
    I'm running my first cycle of test c, and recently ran into a little problem.
    I've been switching up my injection spots regularly, nothing out of the ordinary until it comes down to the day I have to pin my right quad.
    Every time I inject, I have pain going in, discomfort during and right after it feels like a fresh charlie horse. The next day the pain grows throughout the day until the second day when I can hardly walk.
    I noticed the area gets slightly red on the day after the injection, sort of in patches, and it feels very slightly warm to the touch, no swelling. The next day it goes away but the pain persists until the third day when everything feels like nothing ever happened. I was worried that an infection is coming about, but since i stand/walk around all day at work, this might have irritated the fresh wound.
    None of this happens when I inject my left quad or neither glutes. I searched the forums and found nothing of this sort, if anyone can have some input on this it would be appreciated. It just seems odd that it's only my right leg, I'm thinking of seeing a doctor due to an infection fear but I'm hoping it doesn't have to come to that.

    It still sounds like an infection. Most likely, your body is just able to ward it off. What is your injection process? 2 needles? Alcohol prep? And just to be safe, stay away from that area. I had severe pain in my right quad before from injecting to fast, I couldn't walk for a day (I pushed Test E FAST) and it HURT LIKE HELL. Try injecting slower too.

    Good luck, keep us posted!

    I really do not understand why everyone has so much trouble injecting! Doing a simple cycle of test cyp only can easily be injected in just the glutes without any trouble. To be perfectly honest, I have my GF do my injections because I feel it is safer! She does it every 3.5 days and has done this for every cycle & trt injection I have ever done and I have never ever, been even been more than a little sore from any injections I have done except for propionate! that is why I choose not to do prop! but my point is,just stick to glute only injections and most likely yoou will not hve any more problems!

    Process is sterile, I'm a little OCD about it.
    I inject nice and slow, about 1.5 - 2 minutes for one ml

    I'll just stay away from that leg for this cycle,
    and just to be sure, if it were an infection, the redness/heat would not go away right? And I would start feeling feverish few days after?

    I have no problems with glutes, it's only this one leg that's giving me an issue.
    I just like to switch up my injection spots, supposedly keeps the receptors fresh, which makes sense. But oh well

    Anyways, thanks for the response guys.

    I have never had a problem and I shoot each glute every 3.5 days! and have always done it this way! i doubt very much unless you do 5 + cycles a year and cycle constantly thet you would ever even notice a receptor issue if ever!
