A member asked:
I am working with pressured n2, which goes to a needle. i stung myself in my finger, and i can feel there is some air beneath it. what should i do?

Nothing: Nitrogen is harmless (it makes up 70% of the air you breathe). It will be absorbed into the bloodstream. Unless your finger is otherwise injured (painful. swollen, bruised), nothing need be done.
