injected in my glute today

**maxumboater** · 03-04-2008, 07:00 PM

I shot in my glute today. When I pulled the needle out I bleed like a stuck pig. About 10 minutes after the shot I got really sore in my lower back on the side I shot. I asperated (spelling ?) and no blood entered the needle. Just wondering why the soreness came so fast. Also how do I get my profile pic to show up?

make sure that you let the neddle sit in there for about 30 seconds after you finish shootin. Also as SOON as you pull the needle out put a alcohol swab on it.
