Can I use lidocaine before injecting?

When doing an injection...

Can I put something like lidocaine or some other numbing agent on the skin -- make it have less sensation there -- then stick.

If it works for electrolysis -- why shouldn't it work the same for injections?

I dont know if you can or not, but I wouldnt...

I'm going for my first injection this coming week.

For a newbie -- this is the equivalent of taking your first step. I could walk -- or i could fall flat on my ass! :)
 
Bro as long as you don't plan use some harpoon sized needle. If your using a 23g or 25g, your not barely gonna feel the stick. Good Luck

lidocaine is widely used by advanced bodybuilders/competitors/pros who tend to have ED (3x/day) shots. You don't feel it after a while, but the mental aspect of using lidocaine does help them. However, in your situation it's not needed, you would just be putting a substance in your body that does not belong there. Suck it up, do the shot - you shouldn't feel a thing.

man I was new to the shot thing just 5 weeks ago and I was nervous. There I was listening to "The Carpenters, Rainy Days and Monday Always Get Me Down" and it was hard to stick. I changed my CD to MudVayne and bam, the dart went in. :p It actually was alot like these guys say here, the shot didn't hurt hardly at all and I was very suprised. You can do it man.
 
This is just to funny, scared of a little needle pain..needles dont hurt...Hope you never get in a fight bro,you'll have to rub that shit on your face so you dont whin....:bawling: Tighten up be a man geeesss.....
 
Hey man, everyone is calling you girlstown for wanting to numb the inject site - but I say do what you want, it is your ass. Sticking won't hurt you, but if that is the way you want to go, they get a bottle of solarcaine, spray your ass liberally, let dry, and stick.

the first one is the hardest only because of the mental aspect. you feel a slight pinch and then its in and your done. if you use lidocain you will never get the courage to go without it. so to answer your question, yes you can use it but it is not needed.

You can, and I did so when I first started, like many said, it's a mental thing, I had never stuck myself before. I never used it after the first month or so, but yes topical lidocaine works well, injectable ever better, then again I think that defeats the purpose :)
 
Suck it up. As long as your not stickin an 18g pin, it's not bad at all. You may have confused injection pain with the pain you hear of associated with Prop and the like.

Mix a small amount (0.5ml) of lidocaine in the syringe. It always works for me. If I use UG lab stuff, that cause too much pain. But the pain is worse during first 1-2 days. Lidocaine takes care of that initial pain. Afterwards, you have some pain, but not as bad as in first 1-2 days. It works for me. Human grade stuff doesn't cause much pain, so I don't bother to do that.
Use a small needle (25 or 23).
You will just have a mosquito bite.
Lidocaine is not absorbed in the skin so rubbing lidocaine on skin would have little effect.
If you put lidocaine topical ointment, it is not sterile.
If you are too chicken about pins, put some ice on the spot. Then use alcohol swap, and then inject.
Numbing the spot by spraying it with freezing liquid is used as a type of topical anesthesia.
OR DON'T BE A WUSSY AND JUST INJECT THE DAMN THING.
 
dude, the injections arent a thing bro, your gonna look back at this post and laugh your ass off bro. I dont even feel a little sting, just the needle pushing the skin...then in
 
Bro, my first inject will probably get the gold medal for the slowest and most paranoid stick. I remember looking at injection pics, comparing it to my own ass, placing the pin near my ass and pulling it away about 5 times. Eventually I ended up sneezing and thinking "damn, i almost stuck myself". I looked down and the damn thing was already in there a tiny bit. I said fuck it 'cause I didn't feel it anyway and pushed it on in and injected. Piece of cake. No worries, man. Just do it. Afterwards you'll wonder what you were nervous about.

About 20 years ago a friend of mine was sweating his first injection. I suggested he use some ice in a sandwich bag on the injection site for 5 or 10 minutes to numb it, swipe then inject. After a while he just got use to it all and dropped the ice bag routine.
 
something like elamax or EMLA which has lidocaine 4% would work great but you have to put it on at least 1 hour before and wrap it with plastic wrap.
 
Okay okay. Ballbusters!

I'll use it first day -- get comfortable with the whole process -- then go bare bones next time. Hope to get my stuff by wed or so. :)
 
What a vag! Just kidding orb. I was sweating balls when it was time for my first injection. I did the ice in a sandwich bag thing and then had my wife stick me in the ass. I didn't feel the actual prick, but I could feel the needle moving around in there. It didn't hurt, but it felt strange. After that first one, I ditched the ice and did it myself and it was much better. Now I look forward to my injections. I actually enjoy them. Sometimes I will take a shot of b12 or something just because I want to stab myself.
