    Injection question

    Hi all I used a 25g pin for my first inject and it was great, zero pain. I'm doing glute injections and I found it hard to steady the needle while injecting. Not so much side to side movenment but a little bit of in and out. I'm just a bit worried that I'll move too much from where I aspirated and injected somewhere I shouldn't. That small needle moves so easily it's like I hot stuck it in hot butter!

    Any tips? thanks.

    Nixter.

    If you use a 23g it will be done alot quicker. Also once you insert the needle it's in there, after you aspirate the needle won't move. Also it's pretty hard to hit a vein when that deep in the muscle anyways.
