Hello there bchil. I am going to try helping you whatever I can although not a real expert.
Indeed, you need to make sure that you used clean gear and to wipe the area with alcohol.
I can recommend you warming up the solutions a little bit before the injection as it also can help.
as in terms of swollen knee, I doubt there’s something you should be worried about. I personally didn’t had a swelling, but I did had redness and bruising. The swelling, bruising, redness and etc. is basically your body expressing the “displease” of being stuck by a sharp object.
Most commonly, such reactions are pretty mild and they are going away within 4-5 days. That’s why there’s no pain and that’s why there’s no need to be worried about. With time, your body might get used if you’re a beginner and you won’t get such reactions anymore.
Stop the administration and/ or consult a doctor in case the swelling gets worse and/ or it doesn’t go away.
This is crazy, and exactly what is happening to me right now. I am in no pain, but my right thigh is swollen a little, but my knee is puffy. The skin and muscle is tight around, but again, no pain and more discomfort.
Has anyone else experienced this?
I used sterile syringe, alcohol sanitized the quad injection site, but I will say i did not sanitize the tip of the multi-dose vial... I only ever used single use syringes anyways, for what it is worth. I understand perhaps some contamination maybe could have occurred.
I would like to say the gear is good. There is no sediment, pharma grade ( it states), but again i am not sure how to be sure. The company label is Stada; and the product is Muscle Cuts Blend 300. Per ml it contains 100mg Masteron, 100mg Tren, and 100mg Test.
Last week, my shoulder swelled up too. Followed by some hives for a day. I couldn't work out because it swelled up and I couldn't lift my arm up. Then, it just went away.
Now my quad is doing the same thing; no hives.
Is it my body simply rejecting the steroids and "fighting back", of which I just need to push through until some sort of tolerance is achieved?
