Subcutaneous injection went wrong

[Dapnutkid]

I injected .5ml of test on Sunday subq in my stomach since it was all I had left and didn't want it to go to waste. I now have a noticeable bulge or lump that is tender to touch and slightly red and warm. I have had subq shots do this once before but not this bad. I applied heating pad last night and stood in a hot shower today and the knot won't massage out. I am thinking of taking doxycycline that I have in case it is infected. Anyone have this happen before?

Maybe you're just pregnant? Next time, inject IM.

Haha yeah I could be. Sitting down slouched does that at times. I always inject im except for this last time since it was such a small amount. Those that say they inject any oil based test subq are crazy.

It will disapate. I stopped doing subq for that reason. If you wanna use a slin needle. Go shoulders next time

I will never do subq again with test. No problems with water based injections like hcg or peptides. I had this happen before but with an Im glute injection that was a little shallow. It knotted up almost golf ball size but went away after two weeks. Thanks gents

It's just the oil depot. The same happens IM, but you just can't see or feel it.

Slin fine, oil i get a knot. Get it in a muscle or dont bother, knot worth the risk imo.
