My buddy is taking a shot in the delt and EVERY time it bleeds ALOT after for about 5 mins then stops and all is fine...

just wondering on some thoughts about that?

I get a trickle of blood when I hit my delts.Just have him put a sterile compress on it right after he takes out the pin.

I'm sure in this thread you'll hear over and over that it's quite common.

It's from knicking a vein either going in or pulling out.Doesn't happen all the time with me.Yesterday I didn't even get a spot,next time I'll probably come close to bleeding to death again.
