Pain-free injections could be on the way with patch-like invention - Polidicks

This is so not going to work on 50% of Americans, and me. I have a layer of fat thicker than those needles are long.

I'm imagining that it probably feels like sticking velcro against your skin.

Because the western world doesn't accommodate whiny bitches and delicate pussys enough.

[QUOTE=Leg of Doom;45898494]Because the western world doesn't accommodate whiny bitches and delicate pussys enough.[/QUOTE] Fear of needles is a real thing, and it affects a large enough part of the world population that it's worth solving. I'm not talking "oh man, I hate needles"-fear, I'm talking about a proper phobia, where you probably won't freak out, but you cease to be rational, completely.

I'm not afraid of needles, except for the one they use when you donate blood. That thing is huge

[QUOTE=Leg of Doom;45898494]Because the western world doesn't accommodate whiny bitches and delicate pussys enough.[/QUOTE] Is there some problem with removing unnecessary pain caused by needles? is there any benefit to the pain? no? then shut it with your grumpy "those dern kids these days have it so easy" old-ass man talk.

I can't even understand people's fear of needles. Someone pinching your skin between their fingers hurts more.

I'd get 5 injections with a 6 inch needle in the side of my neck for my neck pain, but the trails failed. Now I'm going to be getting at least 15 shots in the back of my head and around my forehead for my migraines. I wish this would hurry up and be awesome. I've never had a problem with needles, but sometimes, I just hate the feeling. In my neck I'd feel it scrape slightly on my spine and can hear the cracking and shit. Blegheghhghe.

This would be a godsend for the likes of me, and it would encourage compliance for people taking their medicines via an injectable route.

There was this one time, I had to get blood drawn out for insurance reasons. I watched the needle go in and then I woke up on the floor. I hate needles so I hope this takes ground.

Really, are you that much of a colossal dong smoker that you are against a vaccine patch, like actually run through that logic in your head and write a 1000 word essay on how much of glorious shit bird you are by next Friday.

This is both good for medicine and for secret service stuff. Imagine using these things laced with cyanide or some radioactive material, you could kill your target while they are sleeping, and there wont be any evidence either!

[QUOTE=Leg of Doom;45898494]Because the western world doesn't accommodate whiny bitches and delicate pussys enough.[/QUOTE] Was it necessary to play the tough guy card? Everybody has varying degrees of pain tolerance and even genuine phobias. I'm sorry not everybody can deal with pain like you can.

It's not the fault of fertilizer, for instance (specifically, ammonium nitrate) that it can also be used to manufacture explosives.

[QUOTE=NeverGoWest;45899065]lol dong smoker, this reminds me of the story I heard of some guy carving a pipe out of a bull dong he bought from a butcher. Edit: my fucking automerge[/QUOTE] That actually sounds like the grimmest smoke imaginable.

Yay for more inefficient delivery techniques for squeamish and pussy patients! (Nurse) Just take the venous or subdermal injection like a man.

[QUOTE=Mr_Sun;45899267]Yay for more inefficient delivery techniques for squeamish and pussy patients! (Nurse) Just take the venous injection like a man.[/QUOTE] No. Not everybody has the same capacity for pain tolerance. This will be useful especially to ensure compliance in such patients.

You know the worst? Needle in your fucking mouth the dentist. That needle isfucking huge but after many times im used to it.

[QUOTE=Mr_Sun;45899267]Yay for more inefficient delivery techniques for squeamish and pussy patients!

I personally have never had any qualms about needles but I've seen otherwise normal people faint because of it.

This is why people join ISIS too much whimps.

[QUOTE=Glitchman;45897565]I've never had a problem with needles except those huge ones they use at the hospital to administer drugs or whatever to your vein in your arm (IV?) that one freaks me out That thing looks pretty nifty though, almost curious to be able to try it.[/QUOTE] IV doesn't hurt that much, it feels more like a really intense itch.

Fuck yeah. I'm not afraid of needles, but holy fuck the nurses around here suck at aiming, I've almost gotten used to just asking if I should fucking do it myself after the third one by now.

Needles pinch and you can feel them a bit in the general area as a pain-like sensation but I've never had a big deal with it. Although the stories I've heard of grown men fainting because of needles while a 4 year old sits next to them perfectly fine shows that obviously people have some pretty big phobias. This will alleviate that a little bit, and hopefully be more reliable/easier to use.

[QUOTE=Leg of Doom;45899464]This is why people join ISIS too much whimps.[/QUOTE] Because someone made an invention that will improve the quality of life and decrease infection risks for thousands of people?

Yeah normal injections with an average needle don't actually hurt that much. Its about needle anxiety, some people have it bad while some people don't.

Are people going to combine them with drugs, and then use them for drugs instead of using needles? Are the patches reusable if the contents are replaced? Are druggies going to be sharing STDs through patches now?

It's not how big the needle is, it's how sharp it is. I had an injection in the mouth with a pretty big one and I didn't feel anything as it was so sharp.

[QUOTE=Saturn V;45897595]I'm just glad my veins are big as fuck so nobody ever misses when they give me the needle. Once the blood actually squirted up in the air[/QUOTE] I'll be disappointed if the nurse didn't scream THAR SHE BLOWS.

[QUOTE=NeverGoWest;45899065]lol dong smoker, this reminds me of the story I heard of some guy carving a pipe out of a bull dong he bought from a butcher. Edit: my fucking automerge[/QUOTE] I need to hear this story.
