DiHydroBoldenone injection site pain – how do y’all cope?

Posted by grace_sleepnerd in Safety & Side Effects - 1 points, 0 comments.

I started a 10‑week lean‑gain cycle with 1‑Testosterone (Dihydroboldenone) 5 mg daily. I keep it in the thigh because my back hurts from the injection angle. For the first three weeks the pain was mild, but after week four the soreness spiked right after injection.

It feels like a deep ache that lingers for a day or two, and I noticed a small bump that looks like a cystic reaction. I tried warming the area with a hot water bottle before injection, but that didn’t help much. 5 mL to 1 mL to see if less volume less pain, but the pain stayed.

I’m not sure if it’s just the injection technique, the ester, or the powder. Anyone else feel that? Any tricks to reduce the pain or the bump?

I’m all about safe use and want to keep my cycle going without the extra discomfort. Thanks!
