A member asked:
I'm just wondering, if you are a diabetic what would happen if you keep injecting the same area?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fat or scar tissue: If you always inject Insulin into the same place, you could build up fat or scar tissue in that area. It is always best to rotate sites of injection.
