Ty. It's likely not anything regarding the injection technique or sterilization, I have been doing this a long time and do not cut corners on swabbing ever.It's inflammation unless you fucked up your injection aseptic technique and didn't swab and sterilize the skin and gave you a staph infection.
The gear is clean in my honest opinion so it's your body badly reacting to it or it's something with the injection.
Keep an eye on it, if you get fever or it gets swollen badly go to the ER.
If it's just red and warmth it's probably just massive inflammation and well maybe TNE or this batch of TNE isn't for you.
At this point in time I do think it is just big inflammation like you say. It's a 5cm wide, 10cm long red patch around the pip site. Let's see how it looks tomorrow which will be day 3 since the pip injection.
For the record: I also still think the gear is clean (although you never really know for sure, seeing how easily a filter can break without noticing, or not knowing as a consumer what um size filters were used etc etc.)
I will definitely be diluting and then refiltering the TNE from now on as I would normally do when I am brewing my own. It might be this body part cannot handle this batch(?)
Thanks for the input all!
