    Tough to inject in right glute

    Hey guys. When I inject in my right glute and the needle is in about an inch the last half inch is hard to push in the rest of the way. Is this scar tissue because this used to be my area injected most often or what. It doesnt hurt or anything just wondering.

    I had this problem also, i asked my doc and he said i was hitting a bone. I started injecting into the ventrogluteal site, which is higher and no probs.

    If your hitting a bone your not hitting your glute in the right spot
