I had a deep muscle injection yesterday (Tuesday) and am wondering when i can do my light weights again. I know i need to avoid for a couple days but I've googled it and can''t find any info on how long i should leave off the weights

thanks in advance everyone

    Why didn't you ask your Dr?
  • If it is comfortable to lift weights do it. If not don't. That applies unless it is some type of exotic inection.
