Hitting a vein in the glute?

[Saltee]

Has any body ever done this? I have heard of people hitting vein's in the leg, arm and shoulder but have never in the glutes?

You definitely can hit a vein in the glute. You also can hit the sciatic nerve which will really rock your world! That's why when you inject into the glute, you aim for the upper, outer quadrant of the glute. This area is mostly clear of veins and nerves.

If you are injecting in the right spot it is very unlikely you will hit a vein. Make sure you aspirate, and you'll be fine.

You are right bro! Aspirating is critical for a safe injection.
