Reducing PIP

ad

I decided to make the move to injectables so that I can safely stay on cycle for longer. I've got some Lixus Test C and I'm on week two at 600mg/week, which I've pinned in my quads. The problem is that the pip is so bad a couple of days after pinning that it's making it impossible to walk normally, which is creating a lot of questions, both at work and at home, which is going to create a lot of suspicions if it goes on for 10 weeks. I've tried massaging the area, hot baths and a range of pain killers, but none of these do the job of allowing me to walk normally.

If I carry on will the pip reduce significantly?

Has anyone got any tips that they use to reduce pip?

Thanks for all the suggestions. I tried the ventrogluteal site on Sunday and despite the injection feeling less comfortable than the quads, I've had no pip and most importantly no problems walking.

Some people handle the quads better than others. Me personally they hurt glutes best for less pain. Your delt shouldn't be bad either for 1ml test c. I rotate sites especially when using prop. If you do quads like said below make sure you go in at the side. I made the mistake a couple years ago by going straight down in the center and damn.. Never again. Honestly no matter which you choose. The pain after a few pins starts slowing or you just get used to it.

Again I had the same problem Switched to glutes. I now apply a heat pack pre and post injection. Now I get little or no PIP

Thanks for the tips.

I think that I need to try some other locations, the quads just seemed by far the easiest place to reach.

Thanks for the input. I'm not quite sure how high you mean. I've been pinning on the outside, just above half way between my knee and hip, should I be going higher than this?

Thanks for the suggestion. I've been using 25G 1" needles to pin. It seems to take a long time to push the oil through this needle, but I'll make an effort to push even slower next time.

hey bro, try a ventrogleuteal injection. No pip there, also make sure you warm the juice up while its in the syring just by warming it up with your hands. I use 1 inch needle on the ventro it can take up to 3cc's. Or why not just try the glutes?

Thanks for the suggestion - I had originally intended to rotate between glutes and quads, but I hadn't though about the ventrogleuteal site.
