IM Injections - Should I be concerned over tiny air bubbles?
Post Body

Been doing injections for a few weeks now, and each time I end up with a couple tiiiiiiny air bubbles in the syringe that I cannot for the life of me get rid of. I draw using a 22G needle and usually the initial draw attempt goes well for the first 2 or 3 mL of my 4 mL target, and then it just starts drawing a BIG air bubble until I stop and reinject the air. At that point any more EV I draw has a few of tiny bubbles that stubbornly stay in place.

I know that injecting air into a muscle or fat isn't as big a deal as into a vein, and so far injecting with these bubbles hasn't caused any noticeable issues, but I'm still wondering if this is something I should be concerned about fixing and if so how tf can I draw my dose without any air bubbles? I could switch to a bigger needle for drawing but then I'm concerned about coring the vial
