What happens if it's sub q? Is it wasted because it didn't reach the muscle?

What can happen is that it can build up there and then shoot out all at once causing some crazy pip..that's what I've read anyway

Yea bro. I'm just talking about dorso being dangerous..that pdf u provided says that as well. The ventro is a "glute" but a hip injection and very safe. Ur right on that boss

It is a bit more technical than maybe the way i disclosed the information, sorry bout that.. Thats why its great to have these open discussions in attempts to provide the most accurate information possible

No, it will be absorbed by the body in time but may leave a lump. May hurt a bit, its happened to me a while back when i did a delt injection the oil shifted and went subq. This was some time ago and did not have much experience with delt injections at the time

^ Yes, there is also a chance of oozing as well

I have to disagree with this, glutes will be the safest place for im injection and is recommended over all, check it out :

Thanks for the link. Very helpful.

Sounds like I'm going deep enough. Thanks.

I always go for a slower a smoother injection with a smaller gauge. Reduces PIP significantly. I inject using a 25g 1.5" for every site
