Hi shubham It depends on the type of the medicine to be injected in muscles,veins or arteries. Depeninding on the medicine to inject they decide the place to inject. If it is a musculoskeleton injection then it is injected in the hips or upper arm. Similrly if it is venous or arterial injection it is injected in the hand as the veins or arteries are easily found there. Takecare
