It's just a syrange with a needle point, but you can still feel the pain everytime it is injected to us. Though many people says that its just an ANT BITE and there's no need for us to be scared. I don't believe them, coz its really hurts when the needle is being injected to me, specially in my gum when my tooth needs to be remove. And it needs time to heal the pain.

I really do not know the reason for this fear. But, in my opinion, it is a natural instinct to fear pain. So, you can never blame people who fear something that gives out pain. It is in fact a natural thing.

its just in your mind. the more you think it will hurt then the more pain you will get coz your brain is connected with your nerves, so if your brain signal that its hurts then your nerves will react. but if you will ignore it im sure you will not feel any, just try to think of any things or imagine something or close your eyes and let your mind be wonder with so many things to distract it. thats actually the secret of it. besides needles is just nothing, what if your giving birth, its the worst and more pain that than. so better be immune with the pain now.

Well, it's painful enough to be unpleasant when it happens, and before it happens you anticipate it which makes it even worse. Besides, there's something scary about having a foreign substance injected into you also. Although you trust the doctors and nurses to look after your health, one little mistake on their part could make that injection very unpleasant indeed!

Probably because it really hurts sometimes. Sometimes its really just like an ant bite. But this is not true when the needle is too long. My most painful injection was when I have to be injected in my buttocks since the needles is really long. It really hurts. Its not just an ant bite. Its really hard to walk after that.

I'm afraid of the injection even when i was a child,it's like a nightmare.Maybe it's because the process endures a long time from the needle is pushed in to pulled out,so our pain and panic will be enlarged through the process.You know,an ant bite just happens in a second and before our brain makes the frightening reaction the bite has ended,so it only left pain but no fear impression.
