small bump on injection site

[duceswild]

so i started a test e cycle 3 weeks ago and on the 3rd week i upped my dose and went from 1cc to 2cc and the day after i injected it feels slightly itchy not really noticable and theres a soft small bump. ive massaged it a few time and theres no pain. im thinking i may have injected shallow, or maybe the bump in cc is the cause. any insight would be appriciated

it could be shallow or it could just be your body reacting to more volume. what length needle do you use and where did you put this shot?

 

[duceswild]

23g 1 1/2

its not a depth issue at all. 1.5 is DEEP unless you are carrying tons of fat in that area.. its probably just getting used to the volume.. i got a lump my first 2cc shot also.. try your glute or some other large muscle group if you dont want to deal with the lumps

 

[duceswild]

ya thats what i figured i am doing the injections in the glute, i just hope its a volume issue and nothing else, thank you for the info

Duce, after injecting try massaging the area for a minute or so to break up the oil, most areas you can go up to 3cc with no problem.

good advice...even to use a warm compress is not a bad a idea in these type of situations

I got a small bump in my left glute after a 2ml injection. It went away after a day with no problems. It was a relatively hard bump as well (felt like muscle actually)

I have never had any lump/bump problems hitting my quads. I try to go nice and slow on the plunger.

Warm compress cuts down on the pain as well. Using that with prop it made it go from crippling to "barely bearable" but it works.

I heat up oil-base a little before injecting, apply a hot compress and rub injection site. Always use a fresh needle and rubbing alchohol. Always draw up with a different needle. I keep injection needles in the freezer to help with pain. When injecting painful things like winstrol or prop I find that an ice pack helps with the pain instead of a hot compress. My .02, hope this helps.

I had that happen on my glute a week ago i think it was a shallow air bubble, it went away by the end of the day though.

I too think it is from the extra volume being put into the muscle, i wouldn't worry unless it starts to itch or burn and lasts more than a day or two.

I take it the test e is 250mg per ml/cc. If it was stealth take into account the benzyl alcohol content. If this is the issue it would be only an irritation from the BA. If not could be only a mild reaction. Keep an eye on it.
