The best way to relieve the pain is to ice it IMO. If you spend about an hour icing it before bed, you should notice some reduction in the swelling. Where are you injecting on your quad? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

You prolly went throught a vein. I did it twice in the same day so I stick to glute now.As for the fluid, ive never had that before. ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

The way I do it on the quad is this: I put the butt of my palm up against my hip bone so that my fingers are pointing down, & towards the outside of my foot. I then draw an immaginary, perpendicullar line across the top of my middle finger. Then, I put the tip of my middle finger on that bone that is on the outer knee and draw another immaginary line parallel to the butt of my hand. You now have two immaginary lines on the outer quad & the injection should come somewhere between the two. You could've injected too fast or moved the pin around while it was in. There are alot of variables as to why a shot might hurt. Shot 1 week hurts...shot the next week in the same spot doesn't. Who knows? Try the ice thing tonight if you have time. Keep it on for about 1 hour. I just used this method on myself a couple of weeks ago on a swollen site & the next day it was fine. Good Luck ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Never had that problem bro. I prefer the quad injections because I can see what I am doing. The sus shots are painful though. However, it does sound like you did hit a vein or something. How far do you let the needle go in? I am sure that it will go away with time but I would think that one week and it should have cleared up by now. You might need to go to the doctor and get it cleared up with some antibiotics or something. Just keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn't spread anymore. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
