Insulin bump?

[spiritfree]

I have a bump/lump under the skin, where my last site was. It's a bit sore and is about an inch long. Has anyone had one of these and how long did it take to go?

If it's sore, you have a pos infection. So keep it nice and clean and keep an eye on it. If it becomes red or the soreness increses you need to have it checked out.
Hope all is well.

Thanks Sue. It's not sore, but I will keep an eye on it.

I usually have a bit of a lump for a few hours after changing sites. Generally they go down after a day or so. I try not to poke at them, and use a tea tree oil spray on the area.
