Why this matters: Higher nerve density - The inner thigh has more nerves, making injections more painful Blood vessel proximity - The femoral artery and vein run through this area, increasing bleeding risk Variable fat depth - Subcutaneous tissue is less consistent here, raising the chance of injecting into muscle Clinical guidance from major medical centres is explicit: Do NOT use the inner thigh. Stick to the front and slightly outer aspect of your upper thigh, roughly the upper third of the leg
