a small air bubble subcutaneously is not dangerous. it costs you dose accuracy, thats the reason to clear it
a fresh pin for the injection hurts less. whether thats worth the extra dead space is your call
i keep the sharps bin next to the fridge so the whole thing happens in one place
pinch, 45 degrees, count to five, withdraw slowly. two years and almost no bruising
i bled a bit, is that a needle depth thing
i keep getting a small welt at the site, technique or reaction
whats your sharps disposal setup, mine is a jar and i know thats wrong
warming the vial in your hand for a minute is the cheapest comfort improvement there is
fresh pin
thats a reaction

thats a reaction
welts at the site are usually a mild local reaction and rotation sorts it
do you pinch or stretch
bleeding a little means you nicked a small vessel. it is not a technique failure
warm it first
