Swollen knee!! help first cycle

ad

Doing my first cycle of Test e 500mg. First of all I want to say that its my first time ever starting cycle and need a little advice. I did my first ever injection into my quad about three days ago and my knee is very swollen and can barely walk. at first it was just my quad but I knew it was normal because of my virgin muscle. However im not sure about my knee... I injected 500mg of test e (yes I realize now that is a shit ton especially for a first timer) into my outside lower quad, which I think was my second mistake because it should be high up but I wouldn't think itd affect my knee.. any suggestion on what it might be? that is the test im taking not sure if that affected it either.. PLEASE help me out in very much pain however swelling is slightly going down. THANK YOU!!

I made the mistake of pinning too low and I had a tight swollen knee as well. U don't want to use ice on a sore muscle, as the cold will tighten up the muscle and that contraction will cause more pain. Heat relaxes the muscle and allows for a better recovery. The ice/heat won't do anything for the oil as that is already absorbed INTO the muscle. Quads are a great spot to pin, just make sure you go about 2/3-3/4 of the way up, and stick towards the outter muscle. There is a nice patch there that can handle the oils easily and I very rarely if ever experience PIP in the quads. Best of luck on the cycle bro, try splitting those pins to 2-250 mg shots too so you aren't pumping too much into your "virgin muscles"

a buddy of mine is on it and seems to be doing pretty great to say the least im not sure on his source but he is doing great on it and hasn't had any problems whatsoever, but I agree with you I cant find anything on it as well.. also I was going to ask why add heat on the knee if its swollen? wouldn't ice be ideal?

Gotcha yeah that makes sense! I really really appreciate all your help man this eroids forum is awesome! I think my next injection will definitely go in my ass.. lot less room for injection mistake although im pretty confident now, maybe a little to eager a couple days ago but anyways just wanna say thanks again!

LOL!! that's one way of putting it.. I hear everyone say heating pad, but wouldn't it be ideal to use ice if its swollen?
