When you inject into the quad do u put the needle in all the way and then aspirate or do u have a little bit of the needle showing and then aspirate , or does it not matter either way?

depends on the needle size. Leave a little out if you can and yes always aspirate. The idea is that if the needle breaks it's easier to fish out than if it's buried under the skinQuote:

I guess pin must of broke on someone at some point and if it was buried would be tough.
Op what size pins you using
I have found the 1 1/2 inch 23 gauge to be the best for me...
thanks guys
i use a once inch needle btw
its purely psychological, but the 1 1/2" needles just look like freakin' harpoons to me!
How does a needle break?? I've tried, doesn't work. I sink it all the way in, that way it's more likely to stay where I asperate... If aspiration is even necissary... ;)
