Thread: Injection question (redness and hot skin lasting 2 days post injection).

For over 3 years now I've been doing TRT with a minuscule amount of deca/eq weekly now...

Every rare blue moon I would get a case where after injection I would get a redness of skin that would surround the area and a little beyond and it'd be warm and hurt to the touch.... I always assumed this was just due to chance as I always take care to use multiple alcohol swabs both on my vials and on the skin and always use fresh syringes...

But for some reason, these past 4-5 injections over the past 4-5 weeks have all resulted in that redness/tenderness the following day post injection and usually take a day or two and then disappear....

Is it possible that I've contaminated a vial? I've stayed with the same source for the past year+, so I haven't changed anything and am wondering what might be the cause of this?

PS. I usually alternate between left delt and right delt every other week and will likewise go from back to mid to front... I used to rotate quads too but always hated when I would hit an area that would twitch my legs out.... The redness will usually actually appear about slightly away and down below from the injection site by a small amount, but is definitely right there just usually underneath/below and to the side.
