an interesting problem with an injection

Brief Background:

My friend is scared of needles, and I am shooting him...no biggie at all.
Last night I go to shot him...delt shot, nothing major. 1cc of Sust. We are alternating shoulders for now, until he builds the courage to let me shoot his bicep. So this shoulder was shot say 4 days before.

The Problem:

As I aspirated, this milky white shit came into the needle. I withdrew, changed needles, and shot again just to the left of the original spot. Again, white, milky shit in the needle... Finally I move to a different spot on his shoulder, everything goes smooth.

Question:

What the fuck is this milky looking white shit????

It freaked him out pretty bad...I told him not to worry about it, nothing can be infected, everything looks fine. No bumps, needle marks, redness; NOTHING...

Thanx for the help

bump because sometimes I see some milky junk where the needle and the syringe meet, although it has never gotten into my syringe so I've never worried about it.

I've heard of people getting this when the injection site had puss in it... there could be another explanation though.

ewwwwww. i hope thats not the case. and i would think that an infected injection site would hurt too much to shoot into.
