    I've probably hit nerves in my quads three or four times and maybe once or twice in my tricep, delt, and glutes. It happens. Most of the time it's harmless - just stay away from the sciatic nerve in your glutes. You'll suffer for a few days if you do!

    quads are easiest for me cause i do it solo. if i ever draw back blood should i discard the needle juice and all? my leg just jumped a little, that was the first time i ever did that, pretty new at this, thanks for the reply though. did i go in too far? i was in a little over an inch 1 1/2 in needle 25 gauge

    It's fun right?

    It my reason for not pinning quads unless I have too, it seems to be the only place it happens to me, I've given up on them now

    I just squirt what blood I can out of the needle and barrell, and change the needle, I'm not sure if this is recommended practice so don't solely take my word on it but I have had no issues doing this, the blood seems really thick that I remove..
