Compound: Test E. First cycle in ~3 years
First two pins were in my delts (my favorite injection site couple years ago). Not a problem in any way on either one.
3rd shot was in my tricep (new muscle). Two days later the whole back of my arm was red and inflamed. Entire muscle was sore. Both symptoms lasted for 6 days. Towards the end I woulda sworn it was infected. Cleared up almost overnight.
4th shot was in my right quad last Friday. It is now red and sore around the injection site. It's only day 3 after the shot. I'm not worried, just curious. My quads I would say are "new" sites as well.
5th shot was today. Left quad.
All pins except tricep were with 1" needle. Tricep was with a 3/4". I plan on using 1" from here on out
Everything is done under sanitary conditions. I even use separate needles to draw and inject with. (New used for each) I never used to do this before. Don't know how much it really helps to have a brand new needle but what the heck.
This time I warmed up the oil prior to injecting in hopes it will go in a bit easier. I always push slow and keep a steady hand.
Is this "bruising" common? I know new muscles take awhile to adapt, but damn. I had to wear long sleeves for a week due to my tricep looking sun burnt. lol If it weren't for the first two shots going so smoothly I might blame it on the oil.
