lower back pain from injections ???

Is it possible that I hit a nerve? Ive been on the couch for 2 days from my last inj. I didnt hurt until I had to sit on my ass in the truck for 6 hours. Then it became very inflamed. Im kinda afraid to do todays.
Well if you hit a major nerve you would know it right away.

There was no pain during the inj. It wasnt irritated until the next day. As far as quality, i'm doing the test E amps from Iran. I have a freind whos done 15 cycles and he even said hes never had anything this bad. Its slowly getting better but I would still like to know what caused it so I can avoid it. jsup, your an RN aren't you. What do you think? Did I just hit a sensitive part of the glute?

Yes i am. Well test is fairly viscous so it tends to a little painful around the inj. site. Some test (brands and types) more than others and some people more than others. It also depends on your injection site, and technique. The dorso gluteal site is actually not in your ass at all. I would make sure you stay real high and out, and the actual inj. site is above where your ass slopes into your upper hip area. There are too many nerves in your gluteus maximus. Watch the area for infection, but it is normal to have some soreness. Some injectibles are just not easy on you when they enter your body.
 
Like jsup said about screwing up the proper injection site. Your aiming for your glute medius, NOT your glute maximus. And I agree, it feels like your putting it into your lower outer back but it is in fact your glute medius. They say if you were to draw lines down your ass cheeks to seperate it into 4 sections, you should inject into the top of the outer most section which is your glute medius, Remember, the reason you dont go into your huge and eaisier to hit glute max. is because there are more nerves including your sciatic nerve running through there which would not be fun to hit! You could have hit a nerve. make sure your hitting the right spot. I noticed that my very first shot, which I put inot my glute maximus as an idiot, hurt alot more than when I found my medius over the following days.
 
Yeah, I screwed up. I didnt realize the significance between the two muscles. With each inj. I kept moving farther and farther back on my glute looking for unsore meat. Lesson learned, thanks for the feed back guys

Yeah there are many blood vessels that run through on the more medial aspect, and if you hit your sciatic, your DONE!
 
I'm definitely getting sciatic pains down my leg from my injection to the left glute. I think going from a 1 inch needle to an 1.5 was also a mistke in my case and is part of the problem. I'm was performing the injections according to the spotinjections.com photo.as shown. I will henceforth inject in the gluteus medius and thighs instead.

1.5 should of been fine but if you have a lower bf 1", maybe, but I wouldn't use it. 1" for quads is good. I hope for your sake that you didn't hit the sciatic nerve. As some people don't know , if you actually clip it the damage may, and most likely be PERMANENT:eek:

Already had some issue with that area and think it was swollen to make a bigger target. Probably did or got close or at least if I didn;t hit it I got close. Don't worry, I have a bottle of Liqui-Sciatic coming from AG-Guys[:o)]
