Red spot.. fuck infections

[GymIntensity]

ya i think thats the case here.. every new spot i hit for the first time is like crippled 2 days later.. and red and hot.. its always with the NPP though.. i did my first quad with test/eq and feel barely any pain 2 days later now..

i think all is well though, thanks for all the info guys

good to hear bro

Good to know you are not infected. My first shots I did, the same thing happened a knot the size of a plumb. It eventually went away obviously but I was concerned none-the-less. finally I did get an infection and you can tell the difference

u say u wipe down the syringe or the needle? DONT wipe anything on the needle. It should come out of the casing and straight into your body after u swab the injection site.

over cautious? .. why not.. my gear is PF

Because pins are sterile and alcohol swabs are just clean.

You do not have sterile alcohol swabs, I don’t think they exist.

Learn sterile technique, Google it, and then practice it when you inject sounds to me like you are contaminating your injection.

Furthermore the alcohol on the pin, introduced by your swab would hurt like heck.


As I type this I think I solved your problem, first learn and practice sterile technique and second DON’T WIPE YOUR PINS WITH ALCOHOL SWABS.

Yes, I think that may be it, injecting add ional alcohol into your site.


Wipe your skin, then not contaminating it let the alcohol evaporate, also swab your vial and let that evaporate (use two separate swabs)
Draw and inject, I bet it will be painless



If I am wrong, well won't be the first time, but try it anyway.

sounds like a plan, being overcautious apparently is causing me more pain.. ya sometimes it stings liek HELL injecting the npp.. and sometimes the test e/eq mix burns.. just the alcohol on the needle.. i figured it was disinfecting it if anything.. shows how wrong i was.. from now on.. out of the cap.. 2 drips down the needle.. into the muscle.. WEEE

I got a large red area (wouldn't call it a spot) below my delt injection site that was hot to touch. This came after a shot of supertest...I've been cutting it with 200mg BD test (mixing 1ml of each) and had no problem. This time I just shot 1.5 cc of straight supertest. Pretty sore been 5 days and is finally almost gone. Last time I shoot straight supertest..OUCH!

what exactly is the red spot.. whats the difference between a reaction to the AAS and infection.. they are both red.. hot.. and sore to touch.. confusing.. i keep thinking these mini-infection like soreness/redness are real ifections then they clear up in a few days.. is it just my body fighting the infection away.. or is it just a reaction to the gear/ba/bb

I think its a reaction to the gear, not an infection. My red hot area was between my delt and elbow...ran from my tri to bi...I would say about 4" squared area. and it was not round or symetrical.
