N2 - Intramuscular injection of site enhancement oil is a cosmetic procedure used primarily in the bodybuilder environment to enlarge and reshape muscles. It comes with potential lifelong complications in the musculoskeletal system with scars, chronic wounds, pain, deformities of muscles and loss of muscle function. Magnetic resonance imaging is the best tool to diagnose and determine the propagation of the condition in the tissues. Treatment is complex and may consist of antibiotics, anti-inflammatories, compression therapy and surgical revision when possible. However, as stated in this review, prevention is crucial.
