bicep trouble after site injections HELP

dragonfire101 · Apr 28, 2003

i stopped bicep site injections about a month ago but the last week i did something to my bi. i cannot really flex it or get a pump in it .its like a flat tire. i have no pain or visble sighn of injuries nor did i when i injected either. my left one is fine and kept most of the gains. think there is some nerve damage or something. i have been stretching it and massaging the hell out it for the last 2weeks no results. the only thing that gets it slightly pumped is incline hammer curls but it still doesnt ball up when i flex it.

You hit a nerve. Same thing happened to my thigh once. It will get back to normal in time.

Holy Sheite Bro !!!

That sounds scary! Glad Big A had the know on that one cuz I never even heard of such a thing.

Godspeed on your recovery

I did something very similar recently but with a "normal" delt shot. I'm still only about 65% of normal strength (after 4 weeks). Only difference is, I FELT IT when I was injecting, just too stubborn to pull out and redo!

DAMN XCEL

Boy I feel bad for you...you have been going through all this pain right before your contest. HE is the strongest guy on here by far. I saw his right arm when it was all brused up. HE is one tough cookie...MUST BE THAT ASIAN STRENGTH?

BIG A how long was itbefore it was back to normal. its ben 1 month for me it is a little better. i wanted to start site injectons again i dont know if i shoiuld wait or what.

I'd recommend waiting until it feels better/normal. I shot my bad delt again the other day and it hurt somewhat - like a shot of prop, not the same type of pain. But - I feel that I don't have any choice as I'm taking 3 shots ED and need to use ALL the sites I have.

well do XCEL, maybe i will add in some electtric stimulation to see if it helps the nerves activate.

It depends. I actually hit the nerve with the needle so the damage took 1 year to recover.

It sounds like with you is just the oil putting pressure on a nerve - must've injected near a nerve - maybe felt 'funny', tinggly when you injected? Anyway, because of that is rather quick recovery as you are just waiting for the oil to dissipate. It will recover quicker if you help it dissipate - massage, etc.
