Bad Quad Pin...duration for significant trauma /pain

[TRTSCOUT]

Been loving quad pins 3x per week for 2.5 months, alternating legs...got excited for my first Primo pin...think I went too low on the Middle 3rd and have been dealing with a deep pain...not much to see in a picture (slight swelling, warm to touch).

I use a 1.5" 27 gauge. Pinned on 10 May.

Since it was my first pin using OPTI Primo 200...and the prevalence of some PIP among experts with some sources....I thought it was primo PIP...

Today I added the primo shot to my test c went ventral glute, same pin, warmed. ZERO PIP.

(For rabbit trail critique my regimen is 240 Test/200 Primo per week split EOD for Test and E3D for Primo)

Picture shows region of deep pain.

Seems like I should only pin 1" on the needle..any other suggestions?

Also what is the longest for a bad pin pain? I know I am monitoring for signs of infection... But other than warm...and throbbing golf symptoms that are not getting better... doesn't feel like an emergency? Just a reminder to keep it at 1" and stay in middle of the center 3rd outside 3rd.

probable inflammation from excipients of primo200

but do not inject so low near the knee, from the center towards the top where you have more muscle tissue

I avoid quads because of these types of issues and the plethora of vessels and veins and nerves I’ve dropped on. I’d rather delts calves and vg

About a week to 10 days

About a week to 10 days

Just today a remarkable improvement. Almost like a pressure issue built up and was finally handled by the body. Thanks for input all

I've only done quads.

No complaints.

Ive always pinned quad and you have pinned way too close to your knee!

next time something like that happens. try hittin sauna, i found out it helps with pip.

 

[TRTSCOUT]

roger that...malfeasance was correct...8-10 days, but my good news was the build up to max pain occurred 4-5 days and broke sharply to the relief side, last few days have been background awareness. yes I have pinned the other thigh....going to repin the same thigh tomorrow to get back on the horse!

Also, I find having a hot shower before pinning helps, so you could try that I guess. Hot shower will relax the muscle, might be worth a shot. Other than that, most people just can't do quad shots let alone quad shots with primo haha
