1st Time Glute Inj.

[Javy]

Ok so I have always done my quads and for the 1st time I went with the glute. Quads were being way over sensitive. I had my wife do it since I don't have the mobility! Lol

Anyways went through all the steps/precautions. After we were done I pretty much had a "dead leg" feeling.. Like I just had a 1.5 needle go into my muscle. Is that normal since it's a virgin muscle?

I wouldn't say it's normal. I've never had that happen.

Me neither. Trt for 3 years twice a week and I do it myself in glute never with a problem...

 

[Javy]

Ok well if both of you say that isn't normal then what do think maybe happened? I know it's all speculation. It didn't hurt at all going in. Upper left quadrant and aspirated. Went 90 degrees in. Waited 20 seconds before pulled out. Didn't massage the area.

where are you pinning?

The lab I used previously used a ton of BA so that coupled with virgin muscle PIP was crazy... for some reason especially in quads, bearable in delts tho.

 

[Javy]

Yeah mine has BA I believe.

Heckler7 - the upper outer edge of quadrant. In less than 24 hours it was g2g. Barely any limping. A little tight if I was trying to stretch the glute.

Could have possibly hit the sciatic nerve. I know you said upper left quadrant but anatomically speaking, we aren't all made the same. As long as it's not bothering you now, I wouldn't worry about it. I've had pip from glute injections but never a dead leg feeling.

I was the opposite i just started quads, when I pinn my cheeks i go three fingers back from hip bone and then go down about a inch down. There is a lean muscle in the area.

Jolter604 I will measure that. I went off the whole draw a line down the middle and across the center

Yeah I think there is a nerve down the center not a hundred percent sure. Probably dealer than a inch or Two.

Jolter604 it's the sciatic nerve and you don't want to hit it.
