A quick question for those who got Hep B vaccinated~

[monokekie]

I know it might have been a while ago... but if you still remember...how did it feel like?

[monokekie]

nice humour~....but I srsly need to know how they stab you..

like.. do they do perpendicular stabs or sharp angled stabs?

[Whatlol]

no idea, but it wasn't that painful to be honest, if your afraid of needles just look away.

[Liuy]

just stings a tad, nothing to be afraid of

[shinny]

It's an intramuscular injection so they should be doing it perpendicular to the skin. Either way, it doesn't matter too much. Anything beyond the skin isn't innervated to much of a degree. I've taken blood this year a few times and after the initial prick which stings a bit, I can wiggle the needle around inside and people say it doesn't hurt at all. And really, because of how quickly they do it, all you feel is that initial prick which feels a bit like it does when you pinch yourself. Don't stress. It's not that painful - the anxiety leading up to it is always worse.

As someone who's had literally thousands of the damn things, they're way less scary than they seem
