Pain hours after injecting in quad

Hello,
I'm going into my 5th week of 600 mg of test e. Since the beginning, I have been getting a weird pain in my quad about 6-7 hours after injecting. What's weird is that the pain is not at the injection site. I inject where you are supposed to in the quad, but i get i get a soreness pain right above the knee at the beginning of the quad. Now, I don't mind this pain ,it's bearable but when it comes to leg day, it kind of sucks. Does anyone else get this? Am I maybe doing something wrong when i'm injecting? thanks
 
I'm pretty sure you may be injecting too quickly and the oil is not being completely injected into the muscle. It leaks out and settles at your knee.

I get a lot of pain in quads too maybe cuz it's virgin muscle only did it twice each side and stopped same reason messing up my workouts especially leg day

Does that mean he's wasting some of the gear as the muscle aren't getting all of it?

It's probably the virgin muscle factor. Should be better in future cycles.

I believe i inject it pretty slowly. I'll try it a little slower next time. What should the average injection time of 1.2 cc be?

You're probably pinning too close to the knee. 1.2cc should take 45 seconds to a minute to inject. If you force it to go faster, you're also probably jerking the needle all over the place, causing pip. Put your palm on your hip, and where your fingertips touch your upper outside quad is where you want to be injecting.

No it wouldn't be wasted, just absorbed at a slower rate.
 
Where in the quad are you injecting ? i have to inject pretty close to the top of my leg. It doesn't have to be the gear causing the pain. You could be aggravating a nerve or something. If you are using at least a 1 inch needle im confident you are getting all of the gear in your muscle....unless you have a high bf%?
 
Are you sure it's related to the injections? I mean does it only come shortly after you pin yourself or at other times as it may be an unrelated injury.

If it only comes when you inject could be the issues the other guys have stated. Try injecting slower or rotating to a different site.
 
Your dosage is too high per injection.
Break it down into smaller amounts and alter the injection sites

I am injecting higher up like halfwit stated. It's possible the needle may be moving around a little during injection. My BF is only 12%.

Yes it only happens on the day i inject and lasts 2-3 days after.
 
it happens now and again bro, u could of easily went threw a vein or hit a nerve, who knows
but it happens to me every so often as well, walking around with peg leg sucks, and usually last me 4-5 days with peg leg
so i am currently running 600mg a week and the Test i am running has 100mg of prop, 100mg of test c, and 100mg of test e, and the prop usually does it to me and others as well, just the part of aas bro!
so in reality i would rather inject 1cc per shot into my delts, and have a sore shoulder thenwalking around with a gimped out leg!, as i stated for me running singel esters like test c or e doesnt do it that often but running a multi ester compound exspecially with prop in it does it time and time again so i limit my quads as a injection site when running the T300 :)

my first injection was in the quad and hurt for a week. get bengay or something similar, this works like magic!!! from experience.
 
you know I been getting this same thing. A bit of pain above the Knee.
I thought it was just going to heavy when training my legs.
I took a week off legs last week casue of it lol.

I inject really slow in my quads too. I think it takes a few mintues easily.
Maybe 3cc's to much for my quads? I also almost always have soreness in the area I injected a day later.

Glad im not the only one. ARe you doing 3 CC's per injection? I'm not really sure if it would be too much for the quad but that seems like a lot if it's per injection.
 
500mg/ml can cause pip in virgin muscle for some people. Personally, quad injections are more prone to pip. I suggest you move your injections to your glutes amd break up your injections into two seperate applications per week. I think you will notice a huge difference.

yes 3cc's in each leg once a week.
I was only getting that pain in my left leg. I dont know if its what you had or not, but from your post it sounds like it could be possible.
