injection question
Sometimes when I inject there's a lump that lasts quite a while after. It didn't happen for the first few ones, but now it seems a lot more common. They're not itchy, and I'm rotating my sites. What could be happening? Subq BTWspoiler
How long is quite a while? An hour? A day? Lasts for a week or more?You might be sensitized to the carrier oil now but I suspect youre not going quite deep enough or pushing too fast. Nice and slow and smooth (even for SQ). Make sure you properly wash your skin etc, cause I guess you could be getting a little local infection but U doubt thats the case either.

How do I know if I'm not going deep enough?spoiler
Well for one youd be getting a big ol bleb lolIf you have a nice chunk of tissue with enough fat in it you can inject pretty much straight down otherwise stick to 45° angle and use SQ needles
there's not a lump after today so it looks like it might have been a speed thing
