Injection site increased swelling

ad

I've done cycles 4 times a year for last 6 years. I've had pain at injection site for test prop and it went away I about a week. 17 days ago I took a shot of test prop that I've done before with the same bottle and developed pain at the injection site and a small lump. During the next few days after injection the lump started to widen on my glute and it's about the six of a brick and protrudes out 1 inch. Went to the Dr a week ago and told him what I did and his response was it's a hematoma and could take 6 weeks to heal and he can't drain it as its clotted blood. Sine he saw it, it's been growing and pain is severe. Has anyone had this challenge before?

Did you tell the doc this part of your history?

You should have been on antibx's for a week already....

Are you taking any other meds?

Doctor obviously. But if you won't, sit on a heating pad. They work wonders

i m not a doctor but i don't think you want to increase the blood flow to a hematoma...

MedDx's picture

Me too...its fun..

MedDx's picture

Yep...i know...lol. Smile

kodiakGRRL's picture

well, i stayed at a holiday inn last night so I am covered ;-)

Theonslaught's picture

Yeah. But we all know know it's not a hematoma. ;)

kodiakGRRL's picture

hey.. i m just going by what the 'doctor' said ;-)

MedDx's picture

Very true too. For the hematoma to be as large as described, OP would have had to hit an artery, while on a blood thinner....sounds more like an infection....hope he gets it fixed...

MedDx's picture

I cant believe the doc didnt prescribe antibxs......and your right, no heat, but ice for 15 mins is an option....maybe improper vial storage and injection technique not aseptic enough...

Theonslaught's picture

Wow ouch. I've done the same but in the syringe there was a a ml of white. The rest shot out in blood.
Doing it yourself is a very bad idea and we are both lucky we didnt for make it worse.

Geez thats true beast mode....

Sounds like you're some kind of drug addict. ;-)

I just love the judgemental doctors. They will help an Obease person who's abused their bodies much more severely, but turn their nose up at aas use. Hypocrites.

kodiakGRRL's picture

then i should consider myself lucky that the doc thinks i m obeast and keeps trying to send me to a nutritionist ;-)

vhman's picture

LOL!

kodiakGRRL's picture

it is true... they are too PC to say anything about weight pe se but I can see it on their faces and then it comes in the form of we think it might be a good idea for you to see the nutrionist and join the 'move' program .... it's great and it's free ;-)

kodiakGRRL's picture

lmao... i usually do wear larger sweatshirts when i go in ... last time i didn't the nurse kinda freaked out when he had to pin my delt ;-) the only doc who even mentioned gear was the shrink ;p

vhman's picture

Silver lining I suppose! :-)

MedDx's picture

Pulmonary hypertension in the making right there...

She needs a starting point and a stopping point with phenteramine....

And maybe a new circle of friends...just my opinion...somebody has been giving her bad ideas about weight loss...

Cigarettes....yuck... :-/

Your doc is an idiot. Go somewhere else with someone competent and get some antibiotics quickly. Is it red and inflamed or just a painful lump?

If you can't make it to a doc pm me and I can help you. But Jesus hurry up because you risk getting that part of your ass sliced the longer you wait

MedDx's picture

X2...

It's not red but inflamed and it's gotten bigger in diameter. I've had a lump like a golf ball or a tennis ball when I first did test prop 6 years ago, but this is getting bigger each day. Skin is extremely hard and extremely censative to the touch.

kh1216's picture

Hmm well then it may not actually be infected... Then I don't know i would see another doc just to be sure but then I suppose waiting would be about all you can do. Sounds like your gear is just brewed badly

kodiakGRRL's picture

not necessarily the brew job .. in fact even poor brewing doesn't cause bleeding (hematoma) ...

kh1216's picture

Yeah I was going off my experience of a moron dumping loads of BA in some test I used making me swell up. If it is a hematoma then yeah it would be the pinning itself that did it

You better see a different doc before it is too late, if it isn't already, or you might end up having a chunk of your ass cut out.

The Dr said since it's not red and I don't have a fever it's not an absess. Said it's hard due to clotted blood and takes up to 6 weeks to heal. The problem is that it's growing and hurting more approaching my lower back.
