I injected my quad this morning but right above and to the right of my knee is killing me. Whats that all about.why does it travel so far from the injection site

you might be going to low man Just a thought I pinned a little low and it crippled my ass I couldnt even walk around and straighten my leg. I also got some grapeseed oil and that has helped a ton like saved my ass so i could hit legs and hit them hard. good luck hope it gets better.

That is very possible. I did go a bit lower in my quad than normal but still higher than midpoint. The good news is it's feeling much better today. The peg leg walk is gone!! woo hooo lol

I have only pinned my glute once because I had a hard time doing it and my ass hurt for a week. LOL. Hated sitting down. I felt like I was in a bugs bunny cartoon easing my ass iinto a really hot bathtub.

I hope this goes away before leg day!! Good luck to you. You're gonna need it. lol

make sure when ur starting a new cycle or doing your first pin. do min amount and try not using high mg compounds. sometimes you can't prevent it. I keep anti inflammatories on hand and heading pads don't help me but I still use them. lol

I'm on week 6 so I've pinned that quad about 4 times. I generally haven't had pip that was been bothersome until this. Hesting pad helps me. Being lose and warm takes away some discomfort. I felt fine at the gym this morning. ..as soon as I cooled off it came back

my first shot this cycle fked up above my knee. hasn't done since. I think it's how the body reacts until you get used to it. I think only my first quad shots did this. both were test prop. it was crippling limped for a week. haven't really had pip since until eq(oh man)lol

If you hit any type of nerve you'd know it right away. Your best explanation is that it didn't go deep enough in the Qaida and leaked out between the fascia and the muscle. This will affect the sliding effect that the fascia normally has and cause irritation. A warm compress can help but just like any type of inflammation your best course is muscle movement and deep tissue massage. It will hurt like heck but you'll recover a lot faster. The reason I'd say its that is because of gravity. I had a colleague who had this happen with the bicep and his doctor confirmed the theory.

This could be a dumb question but is the oil that leaked out wasted or will it still be absorbed properly?

I really dont like to pin my quads but also happened to me a few times!

Pirate walk hehehe well quads are easy to inject if u doing it urself but for some reason i always hit a vein and i hate it when happens... glutes and delts are my choice :-)

I think if a little oil is not completely deep in the muscle it could leak out and the water in your body can push it around. That's my theory anyways

Definitely sounds reasonable. Its def getting worse i can't bend without a lot of pain. Hopefully it goes away quick. This is by far the worst pip in my rookie cycle. My ass check was a close second lol

Its happened one other time but this mich worse. Hurts to bend at the knee...oh well its not going to stop me.

Yes to all. Typically kalpa has been smooth thus far. Maybe I didnt warm it enough.

I pinned about mid way on the right side of my right quad. I feel the pain very slightly there but as it gets closer to my knee it gets worse. Right side of knee not really the tear drop side.that would be in the left of my right leg. My bad I should have clarified.

After I pinned I could feel it slowly moving and during my workout I felt fine. As the day went on sitting in my ass at work it got worse. Its almost like the oil traveled down my leg. Does that actually happen? Im beginning to notice For some reason my left side tolerates pins more than the right. Heating pad and ibprofren therapy is on right now lol

I always pin in the middle and had that happen to me once where the teardrop had pain for a day or so.
