What are signs that you didn't inject deep enough??

[fray5]

My friend injected 1.5cc's of prop in his delt with a 5/8" 25g pin and said that a his lats and shoulders have been sore since. However, he doesn't have much pain at the injection site. He was worried he didn't inject deep enough. It's also his first time using prop, could it be that it causes more pain? And what are the common signs when you don't go deep enough??

If he put the needle in all the way I don't think that would be the problem. He probably just has the soreness from the prop itself. It can spread out from the injection site and cause some irritation. Not into the lats though. So I don't know what would case something like this.

thanks for the reply TGB. That's what I thought it might have been. Maybe the lat pain is just from him being paranoid!

Yeah, 5/8" into delt is plenty good enough to get the oil into the muscle, assuming he doesn't have 1" of blubber covering the muscle.
