<![CDATA[Pinning Pain]]>Curious if anyone else is extremely sensitive to pinning pain. I use 33G, rotate sites, and let alcohol dry to help mitigate but my subject has around a 50% rate of very sharp pain when the needle breaks skin.

Maybe its the MC1R gene. Need a peptide to suppress it ๐Ÿ˜œ

I did lose a lot of weight pretty quickly so that might be part of the problem. Iโ€™ll give the numbing wipes a shot. Thanks for the suggestion.

It numbs the nerve endings.

I use a brand called Numstat that has benzocaine for numbing along with isopropyl alcohol for sanitizing the pin area with my more sensitive research subjects. Rub it on the area you are going to pin for about 45-60sec and then let it dry completely and it should cut down the pain significantly. In my experience it eliminates pinning pain completely.

If I donโ€™t pinch, or pull the skin tight, it hurts and I bruise.

Anecdotal reports of tummy shots hurting more once you've leaned out are common
