Im injection pain, tingling, and bloot spurt

[BDTMD]

So I've been pinning for 3 months. I did my first two injections in my thighs with 22g 1 1/2 length needles. I didn't have pain during the injection, but muscle pain after. So I read some posts on this site and switched to 25g 1 1/2 length needles. I also added in my buttocks to the rotation. When I pin in my thighs, they twitch a little. I pin the upper/outer part of the thigh. Lately, my buttocks have been bleeding more, and today I pinned and had blood spurt about 1ft onto a counter.

Has anyone had thighs that twitch and feel weird when shooting, and blood spurting? I aspirate and never have seen blood.

Any info would help, thanks

Twitching just means you are close to a nerve. Tap the skin with the needle until you find a spot that feels numb. That indicates that there are **likely** no nerves there. Pin that spot.

Blood coming out just means the needle passed through a blood vessel - capillary or vein on your way in or out. It doesn't mean that you injected into a blood vessel.

Are you using the recommended sites for quads and glutes as shown on Www.spotinjections. com?

This ^^^^ OP is right on. My thighs (Quads) always twitch on my left leg when I do quads. That spot has a lot of nerves. But don't worry if you twitch a bit. If it is very painful then move the spot of injection because you are on a nerve.

In my butt (Glutes) I bleed 25% of the time, but I know where it is and as was said you have just passed through a vein. Not to worry, look at a chart and move a little to the outside.

A 22 gauge is a bit big and usually can be a bit painful more than not. For water base gear I use a 25g x 5/8" and for most of my oil base I use a 23g x 1" . Also a hint I use a virgin needle not the one I draw with and is sharp and goes a bit smoother, but that's not necessary it is a personal thing I do.
Good luck

22g 1.5"? DAYUM, that's not a needle, that's a HARPOON! I'd be surprised if you DIDN'T feel some pain after putting that much steel into your body.

What the other guys said.

Oh, and aspiration isn't necessary, and often won't tell you anything significant other than you hit a vein/are in one. It doesn't tell you that you hit one on the way in, and are sitting right below the pool of blood. You don't have to worry about getting some in the blood stream either, it take a HUGE amount of oil to hurt you.

I like triceps IM for hCG and peptides in small quantities.

I guess I can sort of see that as there is a really small volume (my HCG is 2500iu/ml), but hormones being in the tris and calves just give me the heebie jeebies! Kind of like when I first started researching pectoral injections; the very first video was of some dude injecting INTO his nipples??! If it weren't for the fact that there were other videos and images to help guide the process, no way would I be doing pecs with my TRT rotation.
