How long was the needle?
Slightly red skin in area, warm, PAIN, I have had it last all Most a week. I have been there & I think was a combination of things.
Not pinning quite deep enough & the lower half of the quad is more sensitive than the upper half..
Heating pad & hot shower & massage it to help spread the oil out.
It will start getting better in a day or 2.

How bad is the pain? Can’t walk or do legs? Could be the gear if you’re using sterile procedures

Doctor prescribed me this .. I pray it kicks in fast

There u go hot shower & heating pad massage that oil out & I recommend 25g 1" long.
I have done the exact same thing & I did it more than once.
Make sure u r pinning above the mid point of quad.
U will be good in a couple days.

Dude , I’ve had acute pancreatitis.... that was a walk in the park compared to this pain right now. I literally can barely walk without almost crying . My gf had to take my shoes off for me because i can barely move

If you followed sterile procedures I'd say suck it up buttercup.... And also say, quit pinning your quads. Stick with glutes, delts, and lats, or triceps.
Some guys can even handle pinning their biceps, but your virgin muscles are going to be sore until you get more experience. Just the way it is.....
If You don't have any foam rollers already, get a couple and use them not just on places you pin but daily on your muscles, trust me regular FR will work wonders.
