Try your quad next time. I just sit down on the toilet, go to a spot where I don't see a vein, rub some alcohol on it and pop the needle in. The whole process probably only takes a minute.
That's good! ya know there are the basics to injecting and then there are the personals. I for one have a problem with my left Quad. I hit nerves and I bleed and it ALWAYS hurts. WTF ya know, the right is G2G.
For me wherever I inject it's so quick the whole procedure. I know the areas and I flex to make sure I find the muscle, then relax and stab all the way in and plunge. No aspiration no , nothing just plunge. I also (just for me) plunge quick not very slow. Ya know sometimes I get PIP but mostly not. If I don't get an infection ( I never have) and then it's only PIP which I just get over it.
OP I get injections straight into some of my joints, hip thumb, hand etc.. for my arthritis. It hurts but goes away. Other than an infection there just isn't anything to worry or be scared of, you can't do any damage.
