A 25-year-old bodybuilder was hospitalized with a painful left upper arm five days after injecting 1.5 ml of a steroid preparation into the medial aspect of his left biceps brachii muscle. He reported using a sterile needle obtained from a pharmacy, but the source of the steroid vial was unknown. At the injection site, there was a tender, erythematous, palpably fluctuant mass, 10 by 6 cm (Panels A and B). The level of creatine kinase was 18,100 U per liter, and the white-cell count was 20.6x103 per cubic millimeter. Computed tomography revealed a large abscess containing gas in the medial left upper arm (Panels C and D). The abscess was incised and drained, after which extensive débridement was performed. Microscopy of a skeletal-muscle sample showed acute necrotizing myositis, and culture of a swab from the deep wound revealed methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Vancomycin was given intravenously, followed by oral trimethoprim–sulfamethoxazole. The wound healed well over the next several days. The patient was discharged home 15 days after the abscess had been drained.

That just shows you he had NO idea what the hell he was doing.

More like he had no idea where his gear came from, or better yet what was in it.

15 days---He must have had great insurance...If the guy went in with no insurance, you would have been out in a couple hours...Hosptal f cked him over for sure...Guy looks like he never touched a weight in his life to boot...And the fact that the inject site looks like he went into his bicep side ways and probably missed the bicep almost completely....

makes you think twice about your Fina home brew!

nasty shit- 1.5ml is alot to be putting your biceps especially when they are 14in- l0l
he was probably shooting some dirty stuff along with bad injection practices- however I think the biceps are probably one of the easiest shots to do- this a good example why its a good idea to have insurance before starting any cycle- that looks like a serious infected abcess. I wonder what brand gear and substance he was shooting.

I shoot my bi's , tri's and shoulders all the time.
I have never had any problems!
But I always use clean gear and clean needles!
