    General Injection Question...

    I know this may be a stupid question, but I have been wondering, when you inject, can you feel when the needle goes into the muscle?? I mean, does it suddenly get harder to push or is there more resistance once the needle reaches the muscle tissue? Or do you just push it in and assume it is in the muscle? Just seems like a 1.5" needle isn't that long. Sorry if this is a dumb question

    You can feel when the needle gets into the muscle. It's and odd feeling that you need to experience yourself. When injecting into the quads and or delts 1" in more then enough. When injecting into the Glutes 1.5 is normally used. I normally use a 23g without any problems.

    Like said above as long as you use 1.5" for the glutes and 1" every where else you wont have a problem....

    I realy dont notice much difference when the needel enters the muscle but as long as you use the proper length needle you wont need to feel it....

    If you have any questions on injection spots check out this site it is very helpful...www.siteinjection.com
