Doing the TRT thing
After doing some research on the best IM injection sites, a lot of the literature listed the Ventrogluteal injection site as the best option because there are no major nerves or arteries near it.
Do you have any experience using this injection site? Thoughts?
From the site:
"Ventrogluteal site: Is the most comfortable and safest for IM injections. This site is not close to any major blood vessels or nerves. The landmarks for this site include the greater trochanter, anterior superior iliac spine and iliac crest. With the patient on their side place the palm of your hand on the greater trochanter, the index finger on the anterior superior iliac spine and the middle finger pointing toward the iliac crest. View diagram below"
