It happens.
sometimes that happens with my glute shots. It happens when I go in
at an angle instead of straight in, making the injection more shallow.
And yes, a lot of the juice is wasted. When this happened to me, I took
a paper towel that was handy and put it up to the site where the blood
was coming out from. I looked at the towel, and it wasn't dark red. It
was diluted, meaning a lot of the juice shot back out.

the amount of gear out is going to be negligble. u wanna worry more about shooting into a blood vessel.
i hope to fuck u aspirate?

Injections--Some Comments
-The IM route is chosen when a systemic effect is desired and the drug is irritating to other tissues.
-In general, the point of injection should be as far as possible from major nerves and blood vessels, and the recipient area selected should be capable of holding a large volume of injected fluid.
-Complications: paralysis, staining of the skin, neuropathy (damage to the nerve), myelopathy (damage to the muscle), embolism, abscess, cyst and scar formation, necrosis and sloughing of the skin. In most instances, the injury appears to have been directly related to the point of insertion and where the medication was deposited. Published reports make it clear that complications may be avoided in most cases by better technique and more careful selection of sites.
-The upper outer quadrant of the gluteal area is the most commonly used site. This area is remote from the sciatic nerve and the superior gluteal artery and therefore safe for IM injections.
--The generally recommended position of the patient is lying face down on a bed, with toes in and arms hanging over the side. Research findings indicate this position rotates the femur internally, thus relaxing the gluteus maximus muscle and subsequently reduce the discomfort of the injection. Contracted muscle, unable to accomodate the injected fluid, may force it back along the needle track into the subcutaneous tissue.
-Clean injection site with 70% alcohol or providone-iodine. Needle of adequate length must be used (I like 1 1/2"). If injection into subcutaneous fat does occur, deep SC necrotic nodules can cause persistent pain for the patient.
--Aspirate (draw back to check for blood) before injecting.
--The needle should not be introduced to the hub..a margin of a half-inch should be left to prevent its complete disappearance in case of breakage.
--Inject slowly and smoothly.
--Drive the needle home like a dart to minimize pain.
I hope this info helps those who need to develop injection technique. Given my experience, I hope all of you are doing gluteal injections. I would hope that many of you have someone doing the injection for you.

as long as you aspirated and saw white bubbles then no, no juice should come out. what most likely happened to you is what happens to everyone sometimes. you just nicked a blood vessel or vein when the needle was on its way out.Body2000 said:I have been putting the shot in my shoulder lately. Yesterday when I did after I pulled the syringe out blood started pooring out!
So my question is dose some of the juice come out with the blood, so you are not getting the full amount that you put in? Like it's wasted!
