Test E injection keeps leaking from delt to arm (is the gear being wasted?)

[ismailaas]

The last two shots I did in my delt the gear seems to have leaked from the muscle to under the skin under the injection spot. No gear leaks out of my body but seems to leak from the muscle. My guess is I'm injecting too low. Is the gear being wasted or am I being paranoid because it's my first cycle? Thanks!

Push deeper or get a longer needle, if its staying under the skin and not coming out the injection site, your body will obsorb it.

 

[ismailaas]

are you burying the 1 inch needle , if not push it in there

1 inch bro. all the way in too. i'm not scared of nEedleS! and yeah none is leaking from injection site. just a tiny bit seems to leak to under the skin in the surrounding areas. it's causing a little bit of redness on my arms that's annoying. before anyone says INFETION it's not, not warm to the touch nor feveR!

Possibly not going in all the way. Maybe try 11/4 needle

What size are you even using? ?x1inch is it a 25x1?

 

[ismailaas]

25g by 1inch. So if its in my body its not wasted?

You might be injecting into the interstitial space between each muscle group. That could explain any tenderness, but you'd normally feel some serious pressure as it doesn't like oil being put there. Unless you're like 50% body fat (not likely), you shouldn't have enough subcutaneous tissue on top of the muscle to necessitate going with anything longer than a 1" pin imo. Just make sure you're pinning at a 90 degree angle (perpendicular) to your arm and make sure the needle is buried to the luer. You're not wasting the gear either way, so you're probably fine.

try Z track method ?

You seem like a pretty well informed guy based on your post history, but how the hell do you Z-track your delt? I was seriously thinking about this the other day as I do tend to leak a tiny bit out when I push 3ml at once due to the sheer amount of oil. This isn't an issue in my quads where I can use this technique, but I just can't see doing this solo. Or are you referring to having someone else pin for you using it?

Go a little deeper bro

That's what she said.

with a 25x1 you can always go to other spots instead of delt, if you're nervous about wasting
