start of abscess?

[gogetter]

so saturday i took a shot of prop in my right quad. And sunday i did a heavy leg work out. well monday and tues my legs were very sore from my leg work out, and i noticed my right quad was extra sore. now its wednesday and my right quad is deff more sore then my right. it feels like someone gave me a huge charley horse in that leg. i touch it and its like a DEEP bruise. it could be swollen. not sure could also be in my head. so i put a heating pad on it for a little while today because i read that that is proper protocall, if you thinnk you have an abscess

so my question is does this sound like the beginning of an abscess. for one thing i dont have any redness or external swelling knots. the pain feels deep and over my whole upper quad. Any ideas on what i should do.

well, prop has a tendency to be sore for a few days. it should be getting milder as time goes on so if its getting worse then thats not a good sign.

k ill make sure it gets better not worse.

Doesn't sound like it, keep using heat pads and rub the area. It should get better.

i hope so the pain from this shit is sretty intense. in feels like a big internal bruise

 

[raw lifter]

What kind of prop was it?...if it's not inflamed or red surrounding the are it doesn't sound infected

it was an ugl. Southern labs to be exact. my leg is a little swollen but no redness. just a shit load of pain whenever i try to flex my quad.... well im gonna go hit it with a heating pad before bed. i hope this shit gets better

Prop can suck man, i've had pain where I keep checking my temperature to see if I have an infection going on and i haven't had one yet *knock on wood*.

if you used the gear before and you kept sterile when shooting then chances are it's not an abscess. I'd stay away from working out a muscle and injecting it around the same time.

 

[zephyrdaz]

Prop can be uncomfortable sometimes and it really doesn't sound like an infection. Keep heat pads on it, rub it hard as you can when you can and warm baths should help. Try and move the leg as much as possible.

Keep an eye on it obviously and yourself.

Also I wouldn't "stay away from working out a muscle and injecting it around the same time" I'd do the Opposite in fact and work that area to disperse the gear.

Let us know how it goes

how are your other injection areas feeling?

other areas are doing fine. hurt for maybe a day or two but thats it. thsi quad has hurt since saturday. it feels like a big internal bruise.

quad shots hurt man... as easy as they are to shoot they had me limpin and incredibly sore for a week

 

[gogetter]

thats reassuring

If it is an abcess you will start to get sick, fever, feeling shitty, as there is an infection present in your body.

I had a calf shot that for some random reason (didn't appear to be a bad inject or anything) hurt pretty bad for like 2 weeks. Couldn't figure that one out, but i'm just saying, it happens.

i got an abcess from prop on my left ass cheek a few years ago trust me you will know if you have one it hurt like fook. just stuck a green pin in it and a 3ml barrell extracted it myself (not recommended for the faint hearted) had to leave the pin in and empty syringe twice to be sure i got it all like a sort of brownish redish gloopy shit came out and it fooking stunk good luck man

 

[camacho]

i have also removed my own abcess and taken left over antibiotics

 

[gogetter]

should i stick a pin into the area and see if i pull out any puss...? or leave it be

 

[hilldale]

like you said it could just be a deep bruise. possibly from a dodgy pin just leave it be for a few days and see if it gets any better if not try the pin but its going to sting a little hahahaha
