+ 1 How to prevent oil coming out?

ad

Does anyone else have this problem? I use 25 gauge needle to pin 100 mg test prop EOD and the oil comes out the minute I pull out the needle out of my ars. How can I prevent that? Hold it a bit longer and then pull out? Thanks

Assuming my leg is straight out and relaxed, after pulling the pin out when injecting my quad, I will put pressure on the injection spot as well as bend my leg in a different position than when the pin was in (say 90*s). Maybe its subconscious, but I feel that the movement changes and blocks the exit wound from oil trying to escape. I guess its a different route towards Z-track method.

I have the alcohol pad I used to sterilize everything ready for this. As soon as I remove the needle and a drop of liquid appears, I cover it with the pad. It stops the flow instantly and I lose just a drop. Considering how much you pushed in, a single drop is nothing at all.

That's what she said. Sorry, I just had to.

From https://www.steroidal.com/steroid-injections/

Copied as loads below using this but it needs explaining!

" Optional Z-track method when injecting intramuscularly: Prior to inserting the needle into the injection site, with a free hand stretch the skin around the injection site (not ON the site of injection) to the side about 1” with a couple of fingers. Following this, plunge the needle into the injection site as per usual. After the injection is complete, withdraw the needle and let go of the skin with the other hand, allowing the skin to move back. This is done so as to ensure that the path that the needle had created will be closed off following the injection, and will prevent any possible leaking of the injected liquid if it was not injected deep enough into muscle tissue."

Inject slower and leave the needle in a lil bit after. Rotate sites.

Exactly what I was going to suggest

What size needle is everyone using nowadays? It was kind of hard to push the oil through the 25G but no PIP. Alcohol swab I use before to disinfect the site but afterwards I'll use a paper towel lol. Can't see where the pin went....kind hard to do anyway...fucking cramps.

Use A 1 1/2 long needle in the glutes unless you are very lean. If you don't use A long enough needle it will leak out. I use 25G 1 1/2 in glutes with no leakage problems.

Just get an alcohol swab or tissue and apply pressure immediately after injecting. I have been doing this for years and it has always stopped my gear from leaking. Try Holding the barrel there for 10secs once everything's injected too m8.

Use a longer needle,,it doesn't sound like your injecting deep enough. Slow down your injection speed too,,no hurry.

Try injecting the oil slower. Or the z track method works quite well.
