Doctors, what are the best places to give insulin without pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Belly: Hi. Most people do the belly, rotating the injection site around on both sides. With modern needles (30 or 31 gauge), there is no pain. Advice: slam it in FAST; you will feel pressure but no sharpness. Don't push it in slowly.
