To the docs and such

Ok, I've been doing the majority of shots from my cycle in my quads. Right above my knee hurts like a black and blue with my whole knee swelled up. (no black and blue, redness or any other stuff like that) It hurts pretty bad when I flex my quad. It's a good 12 inches from where I inject, my question is, does this sound like an infection. If so what would treatment be? Any info would be better than awesome, thanks.

Are you sure you didnt injure the tendon there??

 

[THEEGAME2544]

You may have bruised something. Are you using sust by any chance?

 

[lartinos]

No sust or prop or any shit like that. I did walk right into a coffee table about a week before it happenned. I would just expect that the pain and tightness would happen right away. I was just paranoid I had like gangrebe or something when i wrote this. thanks for your responses.

 

[lartinos]

yeah, I just did squat 380 for the first time too. The pain was very small before I did that. Thanks again

 

[Dr. M]

If you're hitting your quad too low, it could be an inflammation which travels to the head of the muscle... I had that problem with a tricep shot once; no swelling, no redness, no brusing, but if I straightened my arm I felt like someone was stabbing me with a knife right above the back of my elbow.

Could also be the coffee table or the squats, but it might just be the gear if there's no black + blue. Try hitting your quad in the upper third of the muscle for your next shot.

Thanx Dr.M

 

[Dr. M]

No probs bro... HOWEVER, if it gets any worse than it is, or seems to be taking too long to clear up, SEE A DOCTOR.

[Goldprospector]

Agree with M...why don't you inject in the upper outter quadrant of you quad??? instead of just above the knee?

 

[lartinos]

getting better. that is where I inject. (hence the 12 inches away) Thanks again

 

[silver_shadow]

I here ya, After doing glutes, delts and tri's they are just so much better. Less pain, and i can see what i'm doing.
