Wtf is wrong with my muscles.

[Gizmo]

Hey guys,

Not exactly a beginner but I have a problem I can't figure out. The first 5-6 years of juicing I just used long esters and rotated quad injections without any problems. When I switched to short esters EOD I incorporated delts which went fine for a while but now no matter what the injection volume is they get stuff, swollen, sore and turn pinkish red. So then I started rotating quads and pecs for a while, and after a while the same thing started happening. I do not understand why this is happening, it seems like a reaction that occurs when the oil doesn't stay in the muscle, but it even happens with .5 cc. My quads can take a large volume and have no issue at all. I'm a bit baffled by this. Hopefully someone knows what's going on or has dealt with similar issues.

Thanks guys

my delts always get swollen when I pin them.. pinning my glutes is a nightmare.


shorter esters bothered me as well..especially test prop. I only use long esters now, and don't see any reason to ever change that..


regardless, when the oil leaks out, it typically results in swelling, pain, redness, etc..

I have had the happen a couple times. For me it was not deep enough.
I don't push the needle in all the way incase it was to break from the plastics and I left it out to far.
Have you tried rotating the area of where you pin on your delts. The nerve runs along the armpit. So sticking to the upper portion is safe and it could get the oil into a different area of the muscle.

Many times redness and edema at the site are from the ba in the injection. Ba is a form of alcohol, and it will cause tissue death and inflammation. It's the reason most hospitals no longer use predominately alcohol as an antiseptic for injections and wound cleaning any longer. It's harsh to live tissues.
