Accidentally pushed in air bubble

**JBarron** · 05-05-2010, 12:53 PM

It was my first time pinning delts, I was so caught up on worrying about where to pin, and how to hold the syringe, I left a tiny air bubble in the syringe.

I got to the end of the injection and heard a little air bubble kind of squeak in.

Anyone know what to do, am I in serious trouble? or should I suspect infection? Any feedback would be helpful.

i think it takes either 10ccs of air or 5ccs of air injected into a vein to kill someone, your fine.

You'll be fine. It's going into your muscles.

**MMAngry** · 05-05-2010, 02:24 PM

are delts painful at all? never done 'em b4.. i don't like pinning shoulders.. for me quads and glutes are pain-free.

**_CrossroadS_** · 05-05-2010, 02:49 PM

happens everytime i shoot...i don't leave air in the syringe, but air goes into the syringe when you aspirate ...you are just putting back in what was there already...

You'll be dead soon. Good night sweet prince.

Jk. You'll be fine

I lol'd

Anyways, where i injected kind of has like a little crack, like a cut, it isn't painful or anything it's just odd looking.

**edmen2** · 05-05-2010, 03:27 PM

actually an im injection is supposed to have an air bubble! it makes sure entire med is used and serves as a cap!

**JBarron** · 05-05-2010, 06:12 PM

Bump for any feedback on the little crack/cut that the injection caused.

It looks like a hair grew from the injection spot when glancing at it, but it's a small little idk "crack"

**BrnstrM** · 05-05-2010, 06:26 PM

I had to take a sub-q blood thinner for a long time and there was always a bubble in it that felt slightly painful and made that terrible noise going in (in fact I even tried to stop before the bubble, although I found out that the bubble was not harmful). Anyway after my stomach was getting beat to crap I started pinning into my thigh, and every once in awhile would get into the muscle instead of under the skin. Other than a bruise, the occasional air bubble caused no issues.

i'd say delts are the most pain free.

I do believe it's called "packing", I do it when I pin. Just a little air bubble to push all the solution in. Little popping sound freaked me out the first time but you get used to it lol.

**Lala44** · 05-05-2010, 11:32 PM

I always hear crunchy sounds pushing the pin in on delts.....sounds weird.

X2. There is nothing wrong with adding .2ml of air to squeeze that last bit of gear out.
I always laugh when people freak out over injecting a bit of air IM. You'd have to mainline at least several CCs to cause an air embolism.

delts are pretty much pain free, not many nerve sites in tht area

**willyg091** · 05-06-2010, 01:34 PM

you'll be cool. it is kinda scary when you do it though lol

**JBarron** · 05-06-2010, 08:37 PM

Yeah never pinned delts before, and so far this prop has been killing quads and glutes. Right Delt feels fine today, a bit sore, but it's barely noticeable.

**taiboxa** · 05-07-2010, 08:17 AM

LOL i LOVE these Q's, thing is.. if your pinning a large vein like one in a primary muscle group.. you dont have a syringe bigg enuff unless your using a 15ml+ syringe and have atleast 10+ML of air in and i shove it all in.. plus you have to say the magic words "Fvck!Thats alotta AIR.. i hope tai is right and it doesnt kill me!"...

anyways it will take .. approx 15ml of air to off you (only 2-3ml of air to make you feel like you're gonna die) if you are injecting in a vein.. but YOUR NOT.. your poking a MUSCLE..

-if you aspirate ... your fine..
-if you use a 3ml-5ml syringe.. your fine..

now for the cool shyt.. if you get event the tiniest bit of air in the right spot.. capillaries which feed the brain/heart/lungs.. well your dead.. and as a safe guard you should contact me via PM and send me all your aas/money/primary belongings. Goodluck and happy pinning
