    pop while injecting

    I was injecting my quad and it seemed a little harder to push the needle through my skin, when it finally went through it made a loud pop...I thought my skin might have been dry from tanning, then about half way in it made another pop..
    could it of been scar tissue? I have a small bruse now... nothing major, just wondering what happend.

    sounds like scar tissue, do you rotate your sites?

    Yep, if it was harder to push through then it's most likely scar tissue....... I would start hitting in a different spot on that quad or you will end up bending needles and have some painful injections......... What gauge pin are you using?
