abscess or infection?

[BABY ARNOLD]

Tweetlast night i was gonna inject in my left quad and when i aspirated a milky red gooey liquid came in to the syringe, so i took it out and then i tried the right quad same thing. neither of the quad are swollen, hot to touch, no redness on the skin either so my question is wtf is goin on? any ideas guys cuz this is really weird. and each quad only gets hit once a week.

Tweetsounds like a buildup and start of infection and abcess....
any fever pain...rotate injection sites more get on some anti-biotics asap

Tweetwhat he said...a build up is what I think.

TweetWhat they said and don't even think about hitting those areas for a good month.

[BABY ARNOLD]

Tweetk bros any suggestions on what type of antibiotics

[rado]

Tweetjust leave it alone but watch it closely. make sure you rotate more often though

[mick-G]

TweetAmoxicillin is a good overall anti-bio.

k thanks man i dunno why but that really calmed me down, if it seems to get worse ill get on some amoxicillin.

TweetHe is right, but look at it very closely for not only swelling/pain, but changes in skin color. Might be good idea to get some anti-biotics, and have on hand, so if something happens it won't be too late. Certain bacteria, and gangrene can set in very quickly and before you know its too late. Don't mean to alarm you but it may be wise to take some for a wk or so just to be on the safe side.

what he said that is a good antib, and rotates the sites when u inject and stay aay from quads at least 6 weeks to be on the safe side.
good luck

TweetYOU START GETTING A FEVER OFF TO THE DOC ASAP.I SPENT A WEEK IN THE HOSPITAL BECAUSE OF A ABCESS

[rado]

Tweetafter reading your post again, I think you'll be fine, you could do what mick said, but I think it's ok. sounds like a build up and that happens frequently for those who don't rotate enough.

try doing the lats, calfs, chest, traps...good luck and hope it gets better.

TweetI had an abcess removed about 8 yrs ago was not fun...
there are better anti-biotics for that than Amoxicillin but I can't think of em now may do a search hope you have some on hand don't panic yet now...

Z-pak (*********) for 10 days is one

Tweeti know that they usually give keflex in hospitals for stuff like this so i just when to my doc about half hour ago and he prescribed me a one week supply so if it gets any worse ill take it
