Swollen injection site almost EVERYTIME

[getbig212]

I have been pinning my chest for a few months now. I never hit the same pec twice in one week. At most I hit each pec usually once a week. Here is my problem....

Usually 12-24 hours after the injection my pec literally looks twice as big as the other! It gets big, red, and swollen. A few times I thought I for sure had an infection or abcess. It's always rock hard to touch while it's swollen. However within a few days it always subsides and goes back to normal with no pain.

Why is this happening? I make sure I aspirate every time and never get any blood so I'm not hitting a vein. I thought I might be hitting a nerve which I think could cause this but it happens literally almost EVERY TIME. It's getting pretty annoying.

Also, I inject about 3ml into the pec at most sometimes only 2ml and I still get the same thing. Could someone help me so I can stop this from happening?

does it happen with any other sites (delts, bi's ...) or just chest ?

 

[MightyJohn]

a)Rotate sites
b)Warm up the oil(microwave 10sec)

You may be allergic to the actual type of oil its suspended in

 

[dorian123]

what are you injecting? test prop, winny, supertest? these can cause a bad reaction-especially the supertest

when I inject anything over 400mg/mL it gets red, hot, painful, knots, and I feel like I have the flu for the next 5 or 6 days

Just chest. I have only injected delts, chest, and quads a few times. It has happened on delts before but rarely.

Possibly but it doesn't happen on any other site or at least not even close to as frequently as it does in the chest.

Just plain test-e. I know it's good gear....

one of either-
ur reacting to the type of oil
ur reacting to EO
your pinning methods suck
ur gear is dirty


heres a bright idea:lightbulb:....if your pec swells and reacts like that....why dont you stop n move to another site??? :banghead:

 

[Kaladryn]

Sounds like you might have some bacteria growing in your bottle to me, try a new bottle and if that fixes it then you know that was it.

Yea I know I should start pinning other areas anyways. I'm sketchy about that though. I don't like doing quads because I never feel like I hit the right spot. Glutes are too hard to reach and I can't see what I'm doing....

No it's not that. I have gone through several vials now with this happening.

I get same thing pinning my triceps. Every time gets swollen and swelling moves arround sometimes to the elbow.. I use benadril and ibuprofen and it goes away

I still have a swollen spot in my lower abdomen where I pinned a peptide a few mths ago. Recently tried the HGH fragment for fat burning purposes and pinned all around my belly button (nowhere near the swollen spot and always clean pins) now my entire stomach is swollen and looks like I'm carrying around a large dinosaur egg. I saw a doctor yesterday and he said I need to give it time, as I'm not in pain and it doesn't itch or burn......I haven't used the fragment in over two weeks and obviously will not pin anything in my stomach again. I don't know what to do at this point.... I am already carrying around some b/fat in my stomach so being swollen on top of that looks terrible....I guess all I can do is wait for the swelling to go down......???

Try different area or try test cyp, some people have allergy's certain esters

Heat, soak in warm epsom salt water, try one of those wraps that pulls fluids out...not sure. Very odd...but I have not used frag or experienced this otherwise.

Getbig212 - I had this happen with some test from a certain sponsor here...not sure if it was bad gear, or allergy to something used in it but never happened before and hasn't since switching to another brand...try another product, and another site to pin also. I know some people that get this way from prop or suspension but usually not enanth or cyp, unless it's not clean. Point being, it isn't supposed to do that...anyone you know on the same brand/product/batch and having issues??

SOOOO did you use deductive reasoning thru all of my options i gave you? what oil does your source use for carrier? does he use EO? your sketchy about pinning your quad but youll shoot 3ccs into your pec???? WOWWW....You say u cant find tha right spot on your quad and cant even pin your ass? So lemme guess, u belive your pinning methods are also good and NOOOO possibility of -"no not that"?

o fawwwwwk....that sucks! Would soaking in ice bath help a reaction like that?

 

[Stiffy]

3cc's sounds like a little to much to pin in the chest. I've never pinned chest. It seems like chest would hurt more.

Hemipower - I will cross my fingers and try both of your suggestions. Thank you!

It sure Fawwwwwkkknn does! I already tried cold packs and it didn't help

 

[bcjoji]

try cutting the oil.... Currently I'm using Test E and before using it I was pinning Test C, at that time I needed to increase my dosage but the only available Test to add/mix is Test E (stock for my next cycle).... NO PAIN while mixing the two until I runout of Test c.... Man, Test E hurts 1 day after pinning, tried warming the oil it help a little bit but pain still there..... What works for me at least is adding 0.5cc of Filtered Grape Seed Oil everytime I pin.....

Hope This Help....

 

[gears]

E is a terrible ester for me, personally. Shit lights me up. Prop, however, is completely painless. Go figure.

 

[getbig212]

I'm going to start with the basic and simple solutions and go from there.

Today I pinned 2mls in the right pec. I heated up the syringe for about 30 seconds to a minute under hot water and made sure I injected extremely slow. We will see if this helps. If not I will have to try other things.
