Description
An injection is an infusion method of putting fluid into the body, usually with a syringe and a hollow needle which is pierced through the skin to a sufficient depth for the material to be administered into the body. An injection follows a parenteral route of administration; that is, administration via a route other than through the digestive tract. Since the process inherently involves a small puncture wound to the body with varying degrees of pain depending on injection type and location, medication type, needle gauge and the skill of the individual administering the injection, fear of needles is a common phobia.
