not a problem

update from 6 months ago: switched to a fixed rotation and the site reactions stopped

the needle went in fine but it stung going in, alcohol or the compound

for the archive thigh or abdomen, does absorption actually differ

right so if you are getting a lot of bruising, look at how fast you are pushing before you blame the needle

let the alcohol dry. that is ninety percent of "my injections sting"
the difference between 29G and 31G is real but small. the difference between wet and dry alcohol is not small

push slowly. fast is what causes the ache afterwards

rotate

do you aspirate, or is that only an intramuscular thing

how do you avoid hitting the same spot twice when the marks fade
never recap a used pin. that is how people stick themselves

is a small air bubble in the barrel a problem subcutaneously

is bruising more about the needle or the aftercare

absorption differences between subcutaneous sites are small for a weekly compound
