Lump after injection

[e6er]

This is the second time I injected winny into my shoulder and couldn't get the liquid to come out.

yesterday, inject into shoulder, push the plunger like a madman b/c the winny wouldn't come out and realize if I press any harder I'm going to break the pin. So I pulled back on the pin, tried injecting again and winny goes in smooth. Except, now there is blood in my syringe. Luckily I had a little injection soreness but that was it.

This morning, change shoulders, pin goes in and again I can't get the damn winny to come out. Pull back, winny goes in and I pull the pin out. Maybe a tiny spec of blood, but I always get it during a shoulder inject. About 5 hours later, and I have a huge lump on my arm and soreness.

My questions:

1. Am I doing something wrong that I can't get the winny to inject, maybe going to deep?

2. What can I do about this lump? Is hot wet towel and massaging the area proper protocol?

shake the shit out of your bottle for like 5 minutes.... if you still have a prob just use a 23g or a 22......

what size pins?

22x1 and I don't usually go all the way in, enough to where I feel it hit the muscle. You can always tell when you get that little stinging feeling.

i heard winny is pretty good about clogging the needle

my buddy used to keep the needle pointing up, then shakes it, immedietly stick and push before it has time to clog

good luck to ya!
