How to manage a painful injection
Realize that needles are smaller.
Most people had injections as children and may have bad feelings associated with them. But realizing that needles are now much thinner and cause less pain may help relax you before an injection.
Ask your doctor or the person injecting you about the size of the needle if you like or what type of pain you might feel. In some cases, they may even show you how small it is.
