Numbness in leg after quad injection.

**Barbndr** · 05-27-2014, 03:59 AM

Ok brothers looking for some feedback here, wondering if I should be worried.

I'll start by saying yes, I've injected myself more times than I can remember and yes, I'm very sterile and safe when I do it.

This morning I injected 3ml in my right quad. 1ml tren ace, 2 ml test prop. Instantly I knew I hit a nerve while pinning. I withdrew, changed my needle and re pinned. About 5 mins after injection my leg went numb and started tingling. It's been doing this all day. Have any of you had an experience like this. I'm not too worried yet but figured I'd ask. Thanks for the input and/or advice.

Honestly yes:/ I just try to push needles in as slow as possible so if you feel the sharp "tightening" of the muscle or pain you know whats happening. I would give it a few days and if it goes away( mine always have) not to be concerned. As you stated...your just asking opinions

On another note I injected 2ml into my one quad and when I pulled out the needle a stream of blood and gear shot about 5 feet across my living room...10 years of shots and ive only had buddies tell stories or saw a dumbass at the gym do it once.

What train said bro I'm very cautious when injecting quads, seems like the longer I do it the more sensitive they get. I would give it a few days.

It's story's like these that makes me keep a cotton ball close by when doing quad injections. Though I have never had it happen I put the cotton ball over the injection site and massage the area right after I inject. Op yes you must have hit a nerve and its gonna take some time for it to heal back up. It's probably a but inflamed. Try taking some ibruprofen and use ice to see if you can get it to calm down

Bad injects are bound to happen sometime. You just nicked a nerve and it will probably go away in a few days. The oil will dissolve soon and it will get back to normal. Just leave that site alone for a good long time.

Thanks guys. It's not sore at all just can't really feel my toes today but it's not giving me much of a bother. I've never had an issue with blood (yet). I had the typical one blood drop that's to be expected when using a 22 gauge pin. I instantly put a swab on it and cleaned it.

Like animal said Sounds like nerve irritation and more than likely should subside in a couple days

I wont hit quads just for this reason. I have never had any problems pinning myself. I have to get creative too. I can only hit right glut, or shoulder. I too have pinned more times than I can count. I rarely ever see even a drop of blood, however once I must have gone through a vain as I did have it shoot out as well. Oh, I had back surgery and my left leg/glut have been numb for years, cept for some slight tingling/ painful areas as the nerve is not totally dead. Long story longer...right glut or shoulder no pain, too many nerves in quad, so I stay away.
as for your numbness/tingeling it SHOULD get better fairly quick.
