I used to have the same problem on my right delt and right glute. No matter how long I left in the syringe the oil would come out.
NOW, all of my injections are done using the Z-track method. You stretch the subcutaneous layer out and over about an inch, then stick it through. I still keep the needle in for 20 - 30 seconds after the injection, then once I pull the syringe out, the subcutaneous layer moves over and there is no direct route for the oil to flow out. As shown below.

This has worked BEST for me....
Nice, I'll have to try that.
When this happens to me I lick the oil up... Does that make me a junky or is it standard procedure?
Fck wastin' gears.
It can be a little painful at times because the subcutaneous layer and epidermal layer are trying to move back to the original spot unless you are able to hold it with one of your hands (which is hard sometimes depending on your injection site), but it's well worth not having any of MY PRECIOUS PRECIOUS gear leak out![]()
I was gonna say that... i am not so sure stretching is a great idea.
very nice info, im gonna give a shotI used to have the same problem on my right delt and right glute. No matter how long I left in the syringe the oil would come out.

Wouldn't running hot water over your pin be exposing it to more bacteria?
Dont run hot water over it! That is how i got my abscess..from faucet water!!
And after you inject, hold the needle there for about 10 seconds to the pressure can lessen on the way out..Hopefully less gear will come out
What happened with your abscess? Drain it?
running under hot water only thins the oil out for an easier injection it will have nothing to do with it staying in or coming out.
As I stated earlier, it makes injections easier by heating up oil. (assuming the guage of needle is small and oil is thick). However The barrel is not the needle. And running hot water over the barrel only heats up the oil that you are injecting. plus it is faster to heat up a thin plastic case than it is glass. The water doesn't even need to get near the needle. Why heat up a whole vial (unless gear has started to crash)?????it seems as though ppl are running their needles under hot water. this will have absolutely no benefit to your injection and as you can see will lead to the increase incidence of infection. however if you run the vial under hot water some ppl say this thins out the solution and makes it easier to draw up and inject through a smaller gauge pin.
I would think he meant holding the barrel of the syringe under hot water with the needle still capped, no water would get onto the needle . the plunger doesn't go into the area the gear is in so you are not contaminating the gear. imoDont run hot water over it!

repped for being a freak like the rest of usI personally rub my fingers in the oil and use it as lube to rub one out, which only takes 2 seconds for me. Damn you dostinex![]()
once u get big enough u wont be able to do the z track method bc ur shoulders will be too big a titei work in the medical field as an RN. what is happening is the fluid wants to move from an area of high to low pressure. the needle pathway leaves a track for ur suspension to escape through. the proper way to medically give an im injection is to leave about a .4cc air pocket on top of the solution in the synerge this will lock the suspension in or should help anyways. leaving the pin in longer may give it more time to absorb but u still may lose some oil. running under hot water only thins the oil out for an easier injection it will have nothing to do with it staying in or coming out.
With this method, how do you assure you don't get that air from the air pocket into the blood?
