Injection site infected - now what?!!

[askjoe]

It's been three days now since I shot my last amp of sust into my thigh. My leg is sore as hell and I have to walk with a slight limp - forget doing squats. I think it might be infected. All my other shots went in just fine - a little tender the next day but nothing like this. Besides going to the doc and telling him I'm a juicehead, what home remedies can I use to help heal me? I don't want this to get any worse than it already is.

sounds like normal inflammation.....as long as it's getting better every day you should be fine......if it is an infection you have no other option but go to a doc

I've had some thigh injection that were sore for a week. I think it's just the location were you shoot it. On the other hand I got some bad juice one time and I was sick as hell, fever, sweating. I had no choice. I had to go to the doctor. If it's an infection it will get really bad fast. Atleast mine did. Salty

Might just be the location. Shot once in the quads and going in I experienced a little more pain then usual. As I was doing the injection it stung a little bit.

That night might leg started having a twitching thobbing feeling. Then I had a limp for 3 days. Then back to normal.

I am not sure if infection would manifest itself so quickly to cause you to limp. Just theory.

Sust and Thigh = MAJOR PAIN, lol.

If the site is red and real hot to the touch then you should go see a doc, however, I think you are just dealing with the pain of what you did. Hell, I would never shoot straight sust into a leg, that shit should hurt like a bitch.

Put a warm wash cloth on it for about 15min a day and 600mg ibro. each day until swelling goes down.

watch the area for signs and symptoms of infection. if it turns red, gets hot, very painful, swollen you may want to get it looked at promptly. otherwise, as the other guys have stated, it sounds like a localized inflammation related to the injection.

i shot 500mg susta in each delt and i couldnt move for about 3 days. same with quads.

Let's add fever to these symptoms.
Pain from Sustenon varies from brand to brand. What brand are you using?

Be safe, just go to the Dr and be honest. Tell him all about the huge spider that bit your leg 3-4 days ago. Thats what I did when I got an infection in my thigh. With anti-biotics he had it cleared up in 1-2 days.
