butt still swollen! =(

[Leonberger]

a week ago i injected 500mg of omna in my glute...
everything went perfecly fine, atleast thats how if felt..
three days after the shot i got extreme pain, could hardly walk... a noticed that my butt cheek was quite a bit larger than the other due to swelling...
anyway, i rested a couple of days, and i think it got a bit better.. so i figured i'd go and train...
now due to pressure on the cheek during training, its gotten even worse =(
i mean, the cheek is swollen by the injections site, and its hard as a rock!
its swollen in an area as large as a tennisball!

now what do i do? is it a an infection?
should i go see a doctor?

please need advice fast!

Sounds like an infection to me mate... ask the other boys but it's definately worth seeing your doc about it.

the thing is that t´here is no visible redness or something, but then again, i really don't know what to look for in an infection

If the area around your injection is red and warm to the touch, then it is probably an infection. If not, then you are just suffering from the typical sustanon painful injection!

The syptoms you are describing are not normal bro!!

I would see a doc if i were you.

no the area where i injected doesn't look any different from the rest of the cheek, though it looks swollen...
and no, its not red nor worm...

When you go to the doc for something like this what do you tell him? Do you say hey I was injecting some sust250 & this is what happened? Or do you tell him you were injecting something legal? What happens when this goes into your records? I know it's illegal for them to tell your insurance company but, will the bill that is sent to the Insurance have any identity like infection due to self administered shot or anything like that? Does anyone realy know this? I'm sure there is someone out there that has experieced something similar.........Supertech BTW good luck on getting better bro!

leonberger you should be fine

If it looks like the rest of the cheek BigGuns is right, it's just a painful sus/test injection. As long as it's not red/warm or looks drastically different than the surrounding area. I got one of these the first time I did a T-400 shot, about the size of a tennis ball, hurt like hell for a week, and swelling didn't go down for about a week. This will happen from time to time with sus/test injections. I'd suggest cutting your sus injections with a little deca or eq, or go lower on the volume, maybe just one ml per shot-do 250mg in each glute. You can also run the filled syringe under hot water for a few minutes before injecting, makes for a easier injection, than message vigorously for a few minutes after.

Supertech, I got worried the first time it happened to me because I've shot sus/test for years and never had anything happen like this. But that first T-400 shot and bam, tennis ball that made sitting in a chair painful. I went to my Dr. and told him I "that we were moving some stuff and I jammed my cheek on the corner of a table". He looked at it said it's just swelling, and it'd go away in a week or so. Sounds like a lamb excuse but what the hell.

Sounds like you may have not injected deep enough.

If you have drainage or it is hot to the touch and extremely red, low grade fevers / night sweats, then you probably have an infection.

A little keflex would probably clear it up. but I don't suggest antibiotics unless you are sure it is infected. If you have any questions... see a doc or a nurse practitioner......
