Just a reminder ,bro's when injecting ,beware be sterile ,I've seen a lot and heard a lot of horror stories lately ,and got me second guessing my own procedures ,first my hands are cleaned
1) I take a clean cotton ball,and swab the top of my vial,and then wipe sides
2) if I'm using glute ,I swab the whole cheek thoroughly
3) this allow area to air dry ,natty ,no wiping
4) note once I swab ,bottle and site ,I do not touch agion until
5) already having clean hands ,I now dump a little alcohol into my hands ,before touching sterile drawing pin,
6) once drawn I change tip,
7) if your like me ,you generally feel inject site before pinning ,its automatic ,we do it and that's why I alcohol my hands ,every thing else can be sterile ,you touch site with finger ,and infect area I always alcohol my hands
8) maybe this is over kill but the stories I've heard ,and bro's I know that end up in hospital ,taking iv ,antibiodics and surgeries
Its Scarry bro's and its no joke one of these infections can ,make you loose a limb or worse ,you can end up in a box ,so take your time ,and be safe ,I wanted to post ,because some times we get complacent , and forget
