Injection problems

I figured it was nothing to worry about, but would be worth getting a second opinion. I have had oil come out of the muscle before and pool up, but this seems different. When I say its swollen I mean it's literally about 20% more round/puffy in that area then my right arm in the same spot, and my left is my weak side so usually a bit smaller then my right anyway. Main reason I noticed is because it is making my arm look really out of proportion.

That’s the inflammation. Even without puking, the solvents tend to piss off the skin over my biceps more than anywhere else. No idea why, but it’s a thing for me. Shit just seems puffy and squishy as fuck when it starts getting mad, whereas I can normally see huge amounts of vasculature on the insides of my arms.

Sounds identical to me man, I'm normally so vascular and right now it literally looks like I'm just retaining water in my left arm lol. Anyway thanks for the response and I wont sweat it, thinking it might be time to switch it up and try pinning my bi's or tri's. I'd like to do my pecks but I'm super nervous to try for some reason.

Pecs are actually really easy, and are one of my staple spots now. A word of advise though, don’t do the stupid “reach across to puff up the muscle” shit. Every time I do that, I end up with absurd pip for a week. No idea why.
When I just jab the 1” in right in the middle with everything sitting neutral, I have no issues whatsoever, and it’s one of my favorite sites.

Nice man that makes me feel a little braver about it. Do you just inject dead center? Also what size needle would you go for someone extra lean, I usually go 5/8" in my delts.

I go 1” on pretty much everything, but I don’t fully insert if I don’t need it. I don’t see the point in keeping a bunch of different length pins around for no reason.

Perfect thanks, I'll give it a go on my next pin day. Appreciate the help

Still wasnt brave enough to try the pec yet. However all issues from the initial injection in this post went away no problem. Next injection in the right delt also went fine with no issue whatsoever. However when I went back to the left delt on Friday I ended up with the exact same thing again. Knot/lump about 2 inches below injection site and now today swelling above the elbow again. Obviously it's not a big deal and I know it will go away again, but is there any danger in this? Does it increase my chance of infection or abcess?
