Hello! It's me again (much calmer so far one week back on injections, thanks for your help on that). I just had a random attack of itching at a 7 day old injection site (just slightly warm to the touch, the usual slight bump, no pain - pretty much normal from what i remember with previous shots except the lack of pain heh) and it made me wonder:
What are signs of an infection vs signs of an allergic reaction to the oil, vs just normal injection/healing sensations? ... Uh, vs anything else I haven't heard about yet?
My doctor didn't seem to want to talk about complications, but I know infections and allergies are a thing. So, I'd just like to know stuff like, how to spot them/tell them apart, what to do about them, what is within the range of normal/not a big deal, that kind of thing. Just in case.
t-injecting,
health
