What are some tips on giving a good "painless" or "easy" SQ shot, say for allergy shots.
I just a got a job as an injectiontists and everybody says that I hurt them!!
help!!
 
Use a new (sharp) needle on each patient! 😀

Gently pinch some skin up and shoot in there.
 
Do it like a darting motion. Quick and painless. The slower you do it, the more it hurts. There will always be some patients that complain, but dont worry, they usually say "that's it?".
Good Luck!
