Leakage after injection?

[pcn]

How much is acceptable? I know that's hard to quantify. I never had any before, and today for whatever reason, I noticed several drops oozing out after I removed the needle (25 ga x 1, thigh). I have had some slight bleeding before, but no obvious leakage of the test cypionate. Not a big deal I'm sure, but I am curious. I always squeeze the muscle with one hand before initail injection, then release to push it in. Maybe that helps somehow and I didnt do it quite right this time?

I wouldn't sweat it. At worst, the little you might have lost won't be noticeable.

Yep, not really worried about the small amount. In my little brain, I somehow thought that the hole magically sealed itself up after withdrawing the needle. I know skin loses its elasticity as we get older, but Im not ready to be old and leathery quite yet.

It happens to me also sometimes, it makes me stressed out, lol

I get that leakage (lol at leakage) sometimes too...what I always do is just leave the needle in the muscle for about 15-20 seconds after the syringe is empty....not sure how much of the leakage this stops, but it makes me feel better that i am doing something about it other than licking it up
