Rubbing the site...

[Crysis6]

Do you guys think its better to rub the injection site after you shoot, or just leave it alone? I've read that a lot of people rub it down, and I've also read it could be bad to do that.

I massage site for as long as it takes for my heating pad to warm up. Then I keep the heat on it for about 5 minutes. I've not read anywhere that you shouldn't massage. Where did you read that at?

It all depends if you're somebody that experiences pain after injecting. My injections hardly ever give me any pain so I don't bother but there is nothing wrong w/ doing so if it will help alleviate future pain.

I never get any pain after injection....never have. I know some people get the burn, but I shoot myself and never felt anything. Im not sure where I read it, but I did read someplace it could increase likelihood of developing the knot. If its about pain, I guess it doesnt matter for me...but people have said it helps spread the gear through your muscle. Is that true?
