A member asked:

Should tech use same needle twice to stick me for blood?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not usually: The best answer is it would be best to change needles as this would be best at preventing introducing infection, but if the 2nd stick is in the same area cleaned it probably is okay. Low risk.
