Quad injection

[Oldhighlander]

I was going to inject in my quad last thursday as it has been part of my rotation.Delts,quads,glutes.Stuck the needle in and my quad spasmed.Anybody ever have this happen?Did I hit a nerve?Kinda freaked me out a little.I'm not crazy about injecting in the quad anyway.For some reason it gives me the willies.I guess of all the injections I have gotten in my life time the vast majority have been in the delts or glutes.You know the norm.May stop injecting there because of the mental aspect of it plus I tend to bleed alot when I do it there.

Had this happen on Monday, just means you hit a nerve. Was kinda scary for the first time, but no big deal

[Oldhighlander]

Thanks.I thought it would be more like a jolt of electricity when you hit a nerve.

I've only injected in the quad one time. I was sore for days afterwards. I think I'll stick to the glutes....

Same happened to me. Yanked it out so fast it almost hit the ceiling. Never again.

[Oldhighlander]

I have done it there a few times before.Other then a lot of blood it was painless.KelKel I had the same reaction as you.Didn't know I could still move that fast.I might just stick to delts and glutes too.

i do SQ injection and will never go back to IM, i alternate between glutes and thighs and never had an issue. quads are packed with veins and nerves, its 50/50 hot or miss!

Ok, how the hell do you sq your glutes. Cannot picture that. Need to see that video as well as the blood letting into the toilet thing you invented!

I do quads a lot. I hit a nerve about 10% of the time or less. Always causes a mild spasm. No big deal. I hit a vessel in my delts once. Good thing I always aspirate ! Pulled the needle out immediately and sprayed blood on the wall. That'll scare the hell out of you! I still pin delts but go with glutes and quads far more often.

no video LOL! as long as there is fat you can do SQ. its very short needle anyway.

I always aspirate as well.Never pulled blood but the site bleeds after pulling out the needleI think I am done with quads .

I get a little spotting. No major bleed from glutes. Downside is quads are always sore unlike glutes.

How do u SQ cyp ..i was told it had to be IM ..would like to thy this method ..what size needle and how ?

[go2failure]

Ever since using 25 and 27 guage i never have problems with spasms. Also the location is important. I inj towards the top of the thigh, though still in the lateralis, also in the middle of the thigh, not forward or backward. Since doing this i never had a problem. Ive had friends who insist on goin along the side, have more problems and are too stubborn to change. Also, whenever I did hit a nerver it was shallow, so i just pushed through an the twitching stopped, finished inj.

You can easily sq cyp with a slin pin. You just can't use large amounts like you would IM due to lumps, dispersion. Bass does it all the time. I did a bit but stopped. Glutes/delts just easier for me.
