Subject: Re: Injections in buttocks through teen years Author: Rob (Happy) [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: Sunday, November 10, 2013, 07:49: pm In reply to: Sean 's message, "Injections in buttocks through teen years" on Thursday, July 05, 2012, 08:51: pm I give my sons their shots myself and they don't have to be embarrassed, as if you know what you're doing and many don't, the injection is not given in the buttocks, its given in the hip. Pants down just enough to expose the top of the crack trace a line from the top of the crack across to the hip bone and on the same line go back 1/4 way back from the hip bone to the top of the crack. This is a nerveless area of muscle, the needle goes in painlessly and no embarrassment exposing the boys behind. Anyone who puts a needle in the buttocks should expect crying and bleeding, and its just not necessary. Ive given thousands of injections (army medic) and most of the boys asked for me because I didn't hurt them or embarrass them. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

I would think at an old enough age, they would feel a bit embarrassed? Also, I never heard of a nerveless area whether it be on the butt or above the butt. If this is true, why doesn't this method spread and injections become always non painful? What injections do you have to give to your kids? Thanks Tim [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

It has fewer nerves than some other places on the body, but definitely does hurt with some injections. Not saying you're doing it wrong, as you have plenty of experience, but I have a nurse friend who told me that the measurement is easier to do accurately if the butt cheek is fully exposed. In his view, a few minutes of embarrassment should not be a reason to compromise the method. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
