genuine question warming the vial in your hand for a minute is the cheapest comfort improvement there is

i changed nothing except letting the swab dry and the stinging stopped completely

pinch

rotate

quick one nobody here should be telling you where to inject. we can tell you what we do

a small air bubble subcutaneously is not dangerous. it costs you dose accuracy, thats the reason to clear it

fresh pin

if you are getting a lot of bruising, look at how fast you are pushing before you blame the needle

dont recap

small bubble is fine

bleeding a little means you nicked a small vessel. it is not a technique failure
