I always get out of the shower, dry off for a bit near my fan, then a swab all around whichever hip I'm using that day, another swab on the top of the vial, and a bandaid if there's any blood afterward. So far it's 50/50 on the bandaid.
It was probably just the extra irritation of having a shirt brush against it? I usually get itchy spots when I get shots in the arm, but so far nothing on the hips, probably because I try sleeping on the opposite side I injected.
Naw its definitely the shirt. I take tum tum shots so it has alot more opportunity to brush against it, i just use a bandaid to prevent that now, regardless of blood 😅
