Unique Inj. Aspiration question?

[warrior4e]

When I do a glute shot and aspirate before hand all I see is bubbles, push the plunger in till done. When I pull the needle out blood suddenly appears in the blue transparent base of the needle. WTF is this from? Any suggestions? Harmful etc? Did I pass through a vein, blood vessel or artery early on and the hydrolic pressure forces blood up as I pull out?

Any thoughts from experienced bros or EMT/DOCS would greatly appreciated.

No worries. You passed thru a vein, injected into muscle, came back out and passed back thru said vein and the pressure causes blood to appear in the barrel.

happens to me all the time-as long as there is no blood in the syringe when you aspirate you are good .
