swelling/pain post injection

Ivanko · Dec 12, 2010

I've been injecting in my glutes for years. Usually I do 1-2ml and feel nothing or at worst maybe a little lump that's only a minor inconveince. Lately I've been getting major lumps that last about 4-5 days. Needles are the same, gears the same. Funny thing is 1 week my glute will be fine after 2ml injection. The next week it will be sore as fuck. Any idea why this might happen? Am I just hitting an unlucky spot?

Over time the glutes may need a break build up of scar tissue. maybe try hittin quad. easy and ya can use same pin. I had same issue and once i went to quads i never went back.

x2 - My guess as well.

The scar tissue may be slowing the absorption down as well which may be why your expeirancing a delay in noticing the pain.

You say same gear, are you saying same brand too or different brand?

it's omnadren same brand same stuff same source. I'll try to cut the amount I shoot at one time and try different spot. I do Ventrogluteal sometimes but never sure I'm getting it in the right spot. They're kinda hard to do alone

Might want to try warming the amps under hot water as well. Seemed to always help ..

I know sometimes even with the same vial, I will have 9 shots perfect no pain or swelling, and then 1 time will be a bit knotty for a few days. I just chalk it up to being a bad injection.

12 out of my 15 shots my glute got sore for 3-5 days, sometimes unbearable. Dunno wtf was up but that shit sucked. Same thing in my Quad when i tried to switch it up.
