Quad Pain

[viper10139]

Ok bro's needing some help here....I injected eql test eth..a full cc of it into my left quad on sunday, it's now thursday and it's still swolen and red...the lump has gone away though..redness is subsiding little by little every day..however I can't bend my knee at a 90 degree angle still...when I attempt to do that..it feels like somone is pulling my quad apart....the pain has went all the way up my quad now...I used a 23 g with a 1 inch pin..as usual, what I have used in the past...but still having a huge pain in my leg, I walk barely with a limp... it's very noticable....please bro's tell me your thoughts on this and what might be going on....I have been taking like 6 bayer a day...and putting the heating pad on it...but still nothing...please help guys...

no this would be my 3rd shot.....I have only been on for a week in half, it will be 2 weeks come sunday...Hard to explain exactly where I injected at...on my quad..but when I stand up..I put my arms down and use my thumbs...to find the area..I have hit my quads the past 2 cycles...and have been perfect, all in the same area..kind of funny...because now I feel like I messed up or something..but never ever had a problem hitting my quads..

Viper, I had a crazy limping pain with my first quad shot of EQ. Pain felt similar to your description. I took some ibuprofen a few days later and it felt like the pain instantly released. Don't know if that was what made it feel better but it worked for me and it was great to lose the limp. FYI My subesquent shots were painless

bro did you flex your quade when you inj? i get nervous around my quads and sometimes flex up when i inj and it hurts for days

[viper10139]

no didn't flex the quad....I have been taking like 6 bayer's and a lot of aleve and still the swelling is still there.....going to the DR....iin about 2 hours will keep everyone updated....

i dont know why, but it is possible to inject through a hair folicle and cause cellulitis(not good at spelling). Just make sure it doesnt get hot,or purple. Did the other injections have any pain or swelling? Every once in a while i take a shot that hurts like a mofo for a day or two, but never swelling. I think i just miss the sweet spot.

[viper10139]

no...others injections have been perfect...except for this one.....I am leaving now for the DR..will update this thread later..to keep everyone informed of what the DR. said..it's not purple or anything just swolen really bad..and can't bend my knee still...argh it sucks..

[viper10139]

OK update for all of you bro's...it is in infection in the quad...he gave me Cephelex(spell check) at 500mg a pill, and I have to take 3 a day for the next 10 days..and gave me an anti-inflamatory pills 2 a day for the next 5 days...however thanks for all of your help...hoping to get to feeling better soon...Really don't know what to do with the eql test 400 now!!

[viper10139]

Yes I agree with you bass....just saying that I am scared to use it now....until I can get it diluted..no biggie!!

I had same problem, but only with left quad.

Viper try using a 1.5 pin, maybe you didn't get deep enough.

Not to go against the doctor here, but you could have had an allergic reaction to the BA. People don't always get them, and even if you do, the reactions are not consistent.

I've had some discussions with people in the medical field, and they say usually none of the symptoms subsides when you have an infection, they all get worse or more pronounced.

[viper10139]

JUst great....by the way it was my left quad, I can bend it now at a 90 degree angle.....however still very sore, and knotted up a little, tommorrow is my last day of antibiotics!!

dirty pin maybe? make sure you are ultra clean with the next stick, then if if happens again, you have narrowed it down to the gear or maybe the BA. you could always bake the oil to make sure it didn't get dirty somehow as well.

do this, run a heat cycle at 200F twice, make sure everthing is clean the next go around and if it happens again you might have a problem with BA.
