inject site infected?

[aneas]

not saying this is the right thing to do, but i had a similar lump on my ass, swollen and hard, wasnt red, hot , no fever , nothing and i felt fine. just the lump was uncomfortable. showed up like 2-3 days after injection, and also felt like a dull pain like from a hard workout. it stayed the same for like 3 weeks, and i started to get nervous, so i was all over the internet searching abcesses, from what others said, it may have been a hematoma, so i gkept looking into it. well after another week , i saw some really nasty pics of guys that had abcesses cut out of their quads, bi's and delts. NO FUCKIN WAY!!!! they cut the whole chunk out and leave that shit open with gauze in it. and were like that for like 2-3 weeks. i could not explain that kinda shit to friends, family and or work. so i got a 18 gauge pin, iced that swollen area and stuck it in the lump. pulled back on the stopper and started to get this thick redish, pink fluid, blood mixed with some fluid. pulled out like 20-30 cc of it. and it went down for the day. after a few days did the same and again in a few more days. got like a total of like 100cc's all together and it did go away. still have some scar tissue( this was last year.) and a little bruise like mark where the lump was, dont kow what it was ,cellulitis, hematoma , sterile abcess or what , just glad i didnt have to cut cut the fuck open. but it was from the gear i was using, good ol ROCKET FUEL from designer labs. that shit had a lot of BA in it.


18 guage no wonder you have scar tissue. I drained 10 cc's of blood from my delt and used a 21 gauge and it sucked. To get that much out your glute must have looked like hamburger. Must have been hard to reach and see what you were doing as well.

If you add BA (Benzal alcohol) Be careful.. Too much of it will cause Necrosis (cellular death) in your injection areas.. Also if you are sensative to BA you may be careful here as well as you may get a serious reaction.

funny

the first day , i had to stick that 18 gauge in like 3-4 times, then i said fuck it. i ordered some 10cc syringes and stuck it in once, this is the funny part, and i was going to leave the pin in and unscrew the syringe, empty it and reattach to drain more, well i couldnt quite reach around with both hands to the glute, so i sterilzed a pair of pliers, drained it, held the pin plastic end with the pliers, and unscrewed the syringe , emptied it, and screwed it back on. funny now that i look back on it, but at least it worked.

DOK

I didnt use BA. I flushed with BW. I suspect I either had an allergic reaction to PEG or didnt go deep enough. Probably would have gotten better on its own but I grew impatient.

This happened to me actually 3 weeks ago...I'm on my 5th / 10 injections and the second one (keep in mind this is my first cycle) i put 600 test 300 deca into one side of my ass..It swelled up JUST the way you described it and i was worried as shit!!!! I did all the research i could and as i was JUST about to go see a doc about it (believe me that was the last thing i wanted to do) it started getting better..Feeling better anyways..The Lump was the size of a golf ball on my ass..My girlfriend was like "what the hell is that" I told her and everyone that i dropped a 100lb dumbell on my ass doing incline..Honestly brother it remained bad for a little under 3 weeks and finally went down. I injected that one on 3/25/04 and it was totally gone by 4/15/04..but believe me it remained about the same size throughout and sucked bad bro! Just hang in there and see what happens..As i said, if it gets any worse go to the doc, wait it out and see what happens..Weird thing was, myn was a tad warm to the touch, so you can imagine what everyone was saying on the boards..Everyone on here helped me out and saved me a lot by waiting it out...Good luck bro

thanks for the help guys!

just saw the post, that happens from time to time it is the gear, I have had my leg swelll up to where it looks like some kind of elephant deformity. I have found that if I cut the gear with oil more often than not it will allow me to use the gear and be pain / swelling free.

A friend of mine walked around with a pus infection he didn't know about, maybe cause he's so used to pain... don't know, but he injected himself in the calf, and after a week or so he got really sick feeling, and they had to drain the puss at the ER (gross man). It made him miss a July contest last year, and a world record at bench for his weight (look up Andy Fiedler on the web).

If you aren't feeling weak or feverish at all, I've still heard of bags of puss hanging around (maybe the body saturated the bugger with enough WB cells, killed the infection, and quaranteened the area, and now it takes time to be absorbed by the body).

Good luck man, let us know when/if you find out what it was.

well they are NOT hot, and i dont see any red streaks or anything red at all........i feel fine, no fever symptoms ,only had that one day last week, but like i said, might have been coincedence cause someone at work had the flu and its goign around.

ill wait and see if it gets worse or better.............pain seems to get slightly less and less everyday.

i guess i learned my lesson......never again will i inject something without serious sterilization!
ive used multiple other stuff in the past right out of the bottle and never had a prob until now, but it only takes once.

well im gonna get rid of this bottle and start a fresh one,, bake it, and inject it with eq, that should help.

I've advocated baking before...but only as a last resort... everytime you heat your test..you run the risk of making it crash out of solution... IP used to have very specific recommendations for baking his gear.. I believe it was 250 degrees for 30 minutes (with a needle in the rubber stopper to vent the heat)
