- madrid_mg — pinch, 45 degrees, count to five, withdraw slowly. two years and almost no bruising 22:20
do you aspirate, or is that only an intramuscular thing
push slowly. fast is what causes the ache afterwards
do you use the insulin syringe for both drawing and injecting
90 degrees works fine if you have the tissue for it. 45 if you do not
never recap a used pin. that is how people stick themselves
do not aspirate for a subcutaneous injection, there is nothing to aspirate for
fresh pin
