Injection site question...

[Vision]

Is there any reason to move the injection sight around, other than possibility of scar tissue build up?? The reason I ask is that I inject my right quad. I have found a birth mark that when injected there I never get blood while aspirating and I never hit a nerve. In fact I feel nothing at all while the needle slides in. I have tried moving around and tried glutes with bad results....
Thanks

I just alternate left and right every four days up and down that ~6" window on the outer thigh.

I switch legs each time and have to watch for veins for some reason I have a lot in the injection area. Good thing they are at the top where i can see them.
What size needle to you use? I had a harder time till I moved to the 25g x 5/8" needle.
I just exhale and stick dont feel a thing but if I dont exhale the I feel it. Go figure. So if it works for you like Gene said go for it.

I use shallow shoulder 50 mg T ( 27 gauge 1/2 inch insulin syringe) twice per week injections and see no need to aspirate. No scar tissue after a year.

I will never inject on quads, butt or stomach again.
