Hi
I'm brand new to the pump (1 week and 2dys ) after 23yrs injecting manually, so still getting used to everything! I've noticed when changing the cannula every couple of days I'm left with really sore/red marks, can anyone recommend a good lotion or ointment? Is this normal? Much appreciated
 
Mine be red where the cannula went in, but never sore. I use Bio Oil to help them fade. (Plus it smells heavenly and leaves skin soft.)
 
BioOil is awesome. I've never needed it for pump marks, but it works a treat on little scars and healed over wounds.
