Blood - Is it normal to bleed? First time I've saw this much ...

[SouthPhilly]

So, I was doing a glute shot with the usual 23g 1.5, prop and eq in the same syring, done it before.
This time, it pinched a little more than usual and seem slower going in, not sure if it was angle or w.e, but it went in easy.

I aspirate, air bubbles, blood would come right in if I was in a vein right? I saw the air bubbles and went about it. Only had 2.2 cc's, and it seemed a little reluctant to go in or it could've been me, but when I pulled out, blood ran out for like 5 seconds each time i'd wipe it off with an alcohol swab it would run right back out.

Is it normal sometimes for a bit of blood? I usually just get the little bubble of blood coming at the inject site, nothing that leaked...

Sometimes you'll go through a superficial vein that doesn't bleed until you pull out.. usually not a big deal, just apply pressure for 3 - 5 minutes so you want bruise badly.

Would that be a reason for it feeling sore almost right after?

Unless you have built up some scar tissue then this is most likely what happened. Usually you feel a little burning/stinging sensation to when you do this going in but you always tend to see a little more blood than usual when you pull out and sometimes a LOT more. You'll be fine though.

BA mix might be a little high so intern it might be a little of swelling going on... as for the blood, it happens all the time.. its no biggy

Yeah I did feel a bit of a burn for a second. Atleast I haven't started tren yet, guess it wouldve led to a nice tren cough when it accumulated near the vein lol

The "burn" could also be caused by not letting the alcohol (from cleaning the area prior to injecting) dry properly.

Normally if you do this it's burns like a MOFO all the way in rather than just a spike so to speak as you pass through the blood vessel.

It's good though to remember this for any new guys who use an alcohol swab to allow a little time for the skin to dry before pinning.
