Bleeding after injecting

[Mark Rawlinson]

This probably is nothing to worry about but some times when I inject into my arm I get a drop or two of blood when removing the needle
Is this a common occurrence ? Probably not but thought I would ask

Hi,

It can happen for me. (If it does. Can be for larger doses like basal?)
Though less likely so when I pinch up.
I don’t use my arm as an injection site.

I inject in my tummy and I mostly bruise. I'm like a patchwork quilt a lot of the time.
