Abscess from Subq Shots?
Hi guys - long time no speak.
Just a quick query for you. I have been shooting 2 i.u. Growth into the belly twice daily for the last 6 weeks and all was great until this week.
I pre load a slin pin so 5 shots per pin - and in the last couple of days I have developed hard lumps under several injection sites. Because I shoot twice daily I have 5 of these lumps.
They are red and a little hot but I am not feverish or anything. I do shoot quite quickly and also wonder have I not gone deep enough into the fat as I was shooting at about a 30 degree angle. also the first one to develop has seemed to disipate significantly.
So the question is... Are these abscess, boils, trauma in the injection site or just shooting too often in the same spot?
Is it a trip to the MD, wait and see or a hot bath? Any help gratefully appreciated!
