HCG injection bruise

[AD]

do you pinch the skin up a little to prevent the needle from going too deep? how far from the navel to you pin?

or you can just apply direct pressure to the injection site for a minute or 2.

Sounds like a hematoma. What size needle do you use?

Follow above advice.

I bet its ^ the bolded part. At least thats what happened to me periodically.

Dr Crisler said in a utube vid not to pinch the skin, iirc, cuz it might traumatize the skin. I think I have that right. But when I didn't lift the skin somehow, I went too deep and got quarter sized bruises (black and blue).

As soon as I started lifting the skin and injecting just under the skin, everything was fine and have NOT had a bruise since.

When he talked about traumatizing the skin with a sub q injection, he was talking test, not hcg, but I would think it would be the same.
