Next time you do your stomach, have a cotton ball nearby.
I inject with Copaxone, but I think this suggestion is good for anyone who self injects.
Just before you remove the needle, hold the cottonball just below the injection site. As you remove the needle, move the cottonball onto the injection site and press it down on the site for at least 20 to 30 seconds.
I've hit a couple of spots on my stomach and thighs that were "gushers" and learned quickly to save my clothing or any furniture nearby by having that cotton ball right there as soon as I'm done with the injection.
