I have had quad shots that left me crippled for DAYS. I prefer glutes or Delts. Delts are a heck of alot better than quads! IMO

I use a 29 gauge needle for injections into the top of the thigh (when seated) and for the side deltoids.
I don***8217;t know what number gauge is used for injections into the glutes but when I***8217;ve used that size of needle for thigh injections it hurt like hell the following days afterward. When I told my doctor that I prefer to inject the side deltoids and thighs he gave me the 29 gauge needles and now there***8217;s no discomfort at all.

Dave Palumbo does a RXrant video on YouTube about “3 reasons why quad injections are a bad idea” and he says exactly for the very reason in this thread!
It would appear you hit a nerve, and this seems to be quite common. I have read hundreds of threads about quad injections and this always seems to be a theme.
Always inject in glutes! Why? The glute has the most absorption (over 80% from what I remember), the delt is less then 50% absorption so why inject anywhere but the glute?... maybe for ease of injection if you can’t twist enough to do it yourself? or have a skilled partner?
Moving forward:
I would start on some amoxicillin ASAP, it can’t hurt if it doesn’t go away in 3 days I would go see a doctor it could be progressing cellulitis which would be treated with “Cefazolin”.

Best of luck mate, but I think you just hit a nerve, but better to be safe on this one, if it’s still hot and red growing with in 24-36hrs get antibiotics.
