in diabetes (type 1 to be specific) does fat generate more in the areas u inject in?

by Diabetes Coach on July 4, 2009

spongebob, actually insulin moves around the body once u inject it. it doesnt just stay there where u inject it. my question is, is it possible that fat generates where tissue is damaged by injection?

no, fat cannot generate like that at all regardless of diabetes. If you use sharp needles there should be very little tissue damage.
overusing injections sites does cause lumps under the skin that will go away if you use different injection sites.

Fat doesn’t generate where you inject but if you use that area too much, you can get a build up of insulin underneath the skin which gives the illusion of fat.
