this the right size needle for bis?

its a 20G 3".....think i should tone it down a bit?

I KNOW you're kidding... 3inch...hahahha

Yea that'd work, if you were wanting to hit bone!

**adaptations** · 02-25-2003, 07:32 PM

**Trying2Gain** · 02-25-2003, 07:59 PM

Ya I guess you would need a big niddle with a 48" arm

OMG, the thought of 3'' 20g in the bi almost made me faint.

Pain

I would use 25g 5/8 inch for bi's.

LOL 3 inch - wow - scary thought there!

If you want scary check out a bone marrow needle... it's this thick titanium thing- i use it for calve injects

with a needle that thick you'll end up getting skin in the actual pin ahahah

25gauge 5/8 inch be sure to aspirate espically with a bi injection

sadly enough, i was outta spots to inject one day...and ALL i had on me was an 18g 1' needle... For a bicep injection...

that was the worst... I put the needle about 1/2 way in...that wasnt the problem....a fucking 18g needle in my bicep was!! OMG....talk about pain! left a bruise the size of a half dollar..go figure

Now i'm normal, and always use 5/8 23g... but damn...talk about some injection pain. Oil went in so fast, i didnt feel it (until after i tried to stretch my arm out )
