Abcsess?

[raiderron08]

I did my last shot on Friday and it was bad luck. I did everything right. I don't know what caused it but Saturday my leg was hurting and by early Sunday morning it was hard and red. I went to the doctor and they gave me a shot of antibiotics and some pills, I have a follow up appointment tomorrow. What can I expect, this sucks. Any help would be appreciated.

Usually post-injection, the site can be sore, red or even mildly hard. You waited a day then went to the doctor?

That I shot some B12, and he looked at me and said you lift weights don't you. I said yes. He knew what was up.

Yes, I shot on Friday and waited till Sunday, it got real hard and the redness was the size of a softball. So I figured I better go to the Doc, better safe then sorry.

Mate, make sure you rub the site hard after you jab, that sometimes helps. Also, vary where your puttin in, dont do the same site too often.

i agree better safe than sorry, but that shit happens to me all the time. i got paranoid the first time, got ahold of some antibiotics, but the shit cleared up in a couple of days. i dont know if the antibiotics had anything to do with it. how much did you inject? how often do you inject in this particular site?

 

[raiderron08]

Yea, I make sure I rub the site for a few minutes afterward. I just don't understand, I rubbed with alcohol, made sure everything was clean and I still ended up getting infected.

Read what I said above, injection sites can have the symptoms you describe. Although you are correct about being safe, it does sound like you jumped the gun.

I injected 1 ml of Test 400, I rotate the site and hit it once every two weeks.
