Injections work well for me when I hit the right spot, but I still have difficulty with it. Despite being young I have an essential tremor (my hands shake without reason or any underlying condition). It gets worse when I'm nervous or trying to be precise.
Or you just hit or grazed a small capillary or tiny vein. Use the best light possible, natural and bright, and study the target. And I still get a drop or two half the time. The small 1/4" dia bruises usually fade away in 2-3 days, realy for he next round.
