Its informative and could prevent somebody of making the same stupid mistake........I think that is a damn good reason don't you?musclepump said:Why bring back old threads?
If it really is an abscess and the lump doesn't go away, it will need to be drained, and it's best not to delay this. Is it painful to the touch? I've had what I thought was an abscess in my glute, but it turned out that the 2cc's I shot had just pooled at the surface causing the lump.luke69duke69 said:Well I've decided to go with what seems like good logic.. I am starting with anti biotics because I'm pretty sure this thing is infected and I'd rather be safe than sorry. Besides I also quit smoking last week and have started getting the usual chest cold I get everytime I quit smoking and wind up with bronchitis, so maybe I'll nip both in the bud this way.
antibiotics will negate the steroids in your systemluke69duke69 said:I just shot it Sunday morning but I wiped the edge of the needle with my finger and forgot to swab it again with the alcohol pad. I'm left handed and I normally shoot into my left glute and I'm noticing that I hit it a bit higher and to the hip bone. my hip bone is pretty tender too around the socket. Odds are it's just some inflamation and not an abcess, since they take according to everything I've read more than 48 hours to form to any serious size. But I'm fighting a bronchial infection that I was putting off to see if I could lick it myself and this just made me decide to go ahead with the antibiotics. If it is an abcess, I'll have already killed a lot if not all the bacteria as well as the bronchial infection. If not, at least my lungs will be clean and I was just playing it safe. I have a stash of anti biotics 500mg ammoxicillin on hand. 90 pills all together. that's plenty for an infection and then some. I'll keep everyone updated on how it is in the morning and the following days.
I have don it twice.....and the effects were extremeluke69duke69 said:I read in previous posts that the negative effects on the steroids is minimal.
