Injection welt
http://www.eroids.com/pics/injection-welt
My timing couldn't be worse. I have final EBC pics due in two days and I can barely flex my right quad. I was injecting a pre-workout called Shock Therapy using a 27g x 1.25. As I injected, everything seemed fine: I aspirated - no blood, no pain, then as I pushed on the plunger - WOW - HOLY FUCKING SHIT! The pain was unbelievable. I actually waited for as long as I could bear - about 4 seconds - to see if the pain would subside. It didn't, so I pulled out. Sweating like a whore in church, I just sat there for a minute taking deep breaths mumbling, "what the fuck" and "holy shit". Not to be deterred, I changed needles, and proceeded to inject my left quad with the remaining juice. I didn't really get any into my right quad since the pain started immediately after I began to push the plunger. Man was I nervous about the left quad, but it went in with no problems. And I actually did a leg workout after. I did have to cut it short though - the pain was difficult to work through and I noticed a large red welt about the size of my closed hand radiating out from the injection site. I want to be clear that using Shock Therapy had absolutely nothing to do with this pain. I've been injecting Shock Therapy with good results for two weeks. It was probably that I hit a nerve. I'm just guessing here, but it's still sore as hell and red. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

you hit a nerve ,surprised you didnt feel it while the needle was going in - didnt your muscle tense up or twich on the way in ? i doubt it was a vein -you would really know for sure - the sweating like a whore thing is just a natural reaction to wtf did i just do -lol it happens to us all
I had a little sting as it went in, but I've had that in the past and usually it's just brief and goes away in a couple seconds - I think from the initial pin prick. This time, the pain didn't start until the needle was fully 1.25" into the muscle and as soon as I pushed on the plunger. I may have twitched, I don't recall although I make a focused effort to keep the muscle relaxed no matter what. The fact that the needle is 1.25", made me think it wasn't a vein. Veins don't run through the muscles (quads) do they? Only nerves correct?
their are tiny veins and i mean tiny thats how blood gets carried to the muscle - as long as you aspirate each time you'll know your not in a vein , get a little drop of gear coming out the needle and that will act as lube so the pin slides smoother - if you get pain after the needle is in -pull out and try a different spot - i will usually just go to the other leg
other mistakes i have made is shorts with tight legs if i roll up my shorts and then prep the gear guess what ,you've just put pressure in the veins your leg is now tight -like your arm when doing a blood test -
i use a 22ga. 1.5" for quads - some people prefer a thinner needle but it takes longer to plunge ,
the higher up on you injection zone on the thigh -the more nerves try lower in the zone .
if you do actually inject into a vein by accident though - expect to feel like your gonna have a heart attack - you wont ,just sit down put a cold towel on face and ride it out - it be a mad rush , heavy breathing , it happens and it will freak you out unless you know this happens - rarely- and from not following simple rules each time - like aspirating
let the alcohol evaporate before injecting also - another one that will tense you up when you break the skin
basically with test you should get the initial pin prick then a smooth painless glide - other compounds by nature are more painfull -
Good stuff bro. +1 Thanks for the response.
You injected a pre-workout called shock therapy? Pre-workout supplement? What exactly are you injecting into your leg?
Give me some credit. 'Pre-workout' isn't just an over the counter powder you mix with water. I'm talking about a serious blend of injectable AAS. A pre-workout injection, not a supplement. It's Testosterone No Ester 50mg/ml, Methandrostenolone 25mg/ml, Oxymetholone 50mg/ml, 4 Chlorodehydromethyltestosterone 25mg/ml, Methyltrienolone 750mcg/ml.
