knot after a week?

[StevenCB]

Just wondering if it was alright if I still have a knot on my ass after a week...no redness...looks more bruised and its only tender when I push on it..guy told me he stuck me a little bit lower than he should have, but other than that I'm not feeling bad or anything just a knot under the skin and and its kinda tender

Not to worry. Just quit fucking touching it and thinking about it and it will go away. Maybe shoot your delts and quads for a week or two and give the arse a rest.

Then go slap the guy giving you your shot. Poking yourself is pretty important, IMO. A few years ago, and before I told my wife about my gear use, I did my first cycle. A buddy (experienced...) shot me too low on my delt, basically between my bicep and delt...and the bruise was like a black golf ball for 4-5 days..in the summer, and we were doing plenty of swimming...not fun trying to hide it plus it hurt like a bitch.

What did you inject,

where did you inject it,

did you use sterile technique?

How much did you inject?

 

[StevenCB]

I injected sust 250 and deca
In my ass cheek
I swabbed ass and needle with rubbing alcohol and my ass again afterwards
2.5 ccs was the amount
Why??

 

[StevenCB]

So I'm straight I guess?...Anything I can do to prevent this from happening again ..maybe a slower inject orrr??..and if something is wrong would I know it and when should I start to worry??

Slow inject, avoid injecting into the same place too often (scar tissue). i still get knots but think it's because I'm using a 1" needle and not a 1.5". i determined to use them though!

Yeah this kind of thing can happen bro. Just sit on the other cheek lol. As to the why, you just injected 2.5cc's into a closed space. It has taken it some time to disburse through the muscle.

was it a big knot ?

 

[StevenCB]

It's a pretty decent sized knot...I guess its from using a 1" needle like mphowells said

worst I had was one which lasted 1 day shy of 2 weeks, then the next day it was totally gone. I used to get me worried quite a bit but after a few I knew what to expect.
