Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below So I have been running my first cycle of Test e @250mg 2x a week and just wrapped up week 2. I did an injection into my left glute Friday morning and It has been killing me ever since. It started hurting that afternoon and night and hasn't got much better. My hip just feels super tight and my ass cheek is sore as hell. I am shooting myself with a 23g 1 1/2 pin and it is my first time (2nd ever injection into this glute) so I know its a virgin muscle, but the 1st injection went flawlessly without any PIP. I am changing needles after drawing, using alcohol pads, and aspirating, and am trying to be clean as possible. I know I am moving the needle around a little with the injection but doing it all by yourself is kind of tricky, especially being my first time. I'm just getting myself worked up worrying about what it is and if I had to go to the Dr. What I would say I've been doing. I've read all the other posts and am trying to heat and massage but it kills to massage or sit on for that matter. Any insight would be great...

Like you said they're virgin muscles. You could be possibly hitting a nerve but I really don't think that's the case here. Trust me man it will not be so sore overtime and let it take it's path. Your body will adjust. And also have you have delts a shot? Try it out you may like it better!

Don't worry about it ... it is nothing serious. I used to move the needle around in the beginning and it caused me some discomfort as well, but as time went on 2 things happened ... I got more relaxed with the idea of pinning myself and my muscles got used to being injected. It'll get better, don't worry. I had hip stifness and muscle pain and slight fever and all sorts before.
