Urgent! Massive pain and lump after first injection!

[burnthiscorpse]

Woah I have been using 25gs 1" in my glutes... Guess I am lean lol
But yeah it sounds like possible abscess but also... Virgin muscle pin, always nasty and worse for some
1ml at once is a better idea while your body gets used to clearing oil out of your muscles

If its been a week and its not worsening then I seriously doubt its an abcess. Sterile abcess maybe but not an infected one. He would definatley know by now.

Best will be to use 2" needle 22g.. Did u aspirate first? U might of gotten a vessle and blood collected outside but u should be fine give it another week, apply cold compresses

A 2" needle is insane. I've always used a 25 gauge 1". And aspirating has nothing to do with it. A lump isn;t due to hitting a blood vessel, which in the case of the glutes wouldn't be that big anyway.

The problem was the dosage. 500 mgs is simple too much at one time in one spot. Next time, you'll know better.

I had the same issues when I inject my glute. But I use 1.5" 23g.. or did... It is a pain in the... well... ass... but I just worked out through it. I just went through an abscess.. now have a huge hole in my chest, trust me, you will know if you have an abscess. I seemed to get lumps no matter where I injected o.0... but they all went away, just rub it, give it some heat time to time, and stretch a lot, that is what I did/do and it was fine.

But again... you WILL know if it's an abscess for sure. Although, the fever and stuff, doesn't necessarily happen. I never got one, I had the painful as hell lump for about a week, and the redness for almost the same time, I just thought maybe it was irritated. When I finally did get ill, it was almost a week later, but I had no fever, only cold like symptoms. I got unlucky as well though and had the abscess with cellulitis, I got hit double time.

OH and also, as some have mentioned.. split the injections. I was the same as you, 500mg a week, but I did 250mg on Monday, then another 250 on Thursday. Didn't seem to have many issues other than above by doing it that way.

To much oil in one area. Hot shower and massage.

[RickRock13]

Yeh, there is no reason anyone should ever be using a 2" needle for gear. That's insane
