Why are there very few butt and needles when they were young?

When it comes to injections, many friends who start to be nostalgic will definitely feel pain in faint buttocks.

However, after inoculation of various types of vaccines such as new crown vaccines, HPV vaccines, and influenza vaccines in the past two years, many people can't help but have a question:

Why are the injections be hit on the arm now? The butt needle is almost impossible?

Injection is called injection in medicine, which is one of the ways of drugs entering the body. Depending on the specific piercing site, it can be divided into internal injection, venous injection, muscle injection, subcutaneous injection, and so on.

Different injection methods and injection sites affect the speed of drug absorption. Different drugs have different requirements, and there are commonly used corresponding injection methods.

The butt needle is actually a drug intake of muscle injection in the hips. It was once a very mainstream method.

The butt needle, once the memory of a generation

If you don't obedient, you will take you to the buttock! This sentence probably scares several generations of children.

In the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, the buttocks were very common until the 1990s. At the injection window, the needle hasn't touched the butt yet. As long as you see the syringe, many children are scared.

At this time, an experienced nurse sister would ask: Children, how old is it? What school is there? Talking and chatting, while you don't pay attention, the needle enters the skin in a needle.

The butt needle needs to be pierced to 2.5 to 3 cm vertically -almost equivalent to a finger knuckle to break through the thick fat layer of the skin and buttocks and reach the muscles.

Although the diameter of the needle is actually less than one millimeter, your feelings seem to:

Moreover, it is not finished. Drugs that require hip muscles often have a large amount. In order to reduce irritation, many drugs cannot be pushed in at once.

You have to keep this posture, ranging from half a minute to a few minutes, endure the strange feeling of entering the muscles a little ...

Finally finished. You came down from the injection table and thought it was okay, but in fact, the medicinal solution would still stay in the muscles for half an hour or even longer. In other words, the painful butt pain must continue to accompany for a period of time ...

Therefore, the memories of those buttocks when they were young are always accompanied by screaming and escape. In case of pain to school the next day, they have to bear the laughter of their friends. From the perspective of children at the time, it was simply! Human torture is not bigger than this! Intersection Intersection

But the pain cannot be rejected, because someone will always tell you: honesty! If you don't get in, you have to tie it again.

terrible.

Dot needle, not only pain as simple

Times are progressing, and we have become more arrogant. The way the drug enters the body has also changed quietly.

Hop muscle injection has made great progress today than that year. There will be no blunt needle to be used after disinfection. The test certification of the nursing staff became stricter and stricter. The phenomenon of blindly tie the village doctor did not look at the parts. There are fewer and fewer other adverse reactions such as injection pain.

But some of the innate deficiencies of the butt needle are still compressing its existence.

First of all, pain cannot be completely avoided.

Although the current needle has been improved, compared to the thin -skinned parts of the skin and elbows, the butt needle still breaks through the skin and adipose tissue that may be 3cm thicker to reach the muscles. This is a huge wound, painful, painful The problem cannot be completely avoided.

Secondly, there are some rare but troublesome injection complications, and safety risks are unavoidable.

It is simply the hard constraints that appear repeatedly, and it may also cause the disabled buttocks to cause the disabled buttocks and sciatic nerve damage.

The gluteal muscle contracture is a special kind of fibrous spasm that occurs with fibrous degeneration spasm that occurs in the absence of gluteal muscle or the fascia, which can cause dysfunction of hip activity and affect subsequent walking. After repeated injection, it may cause.

Sciatic nerve injury is easier to understand. When the injection location is too far away from the green safety zone, it may affect the yellow sciatic nerve, and in severe cases, it will affect the muscle strength and activity of the entire lower limbs, causing paralysis.

Finally, privacy issues.

After all, it is inconvenient to expose the hips. In some relatively private public injection rooms, taking off your pants still requires a strong psychological construction.

The advancement of the drug makes the butt less tie

Slowly, the butt needle became a generation of memories, not the way to take a righteous medication.

Searching for the Chinese Medical Journal Database, articles involving muscle injection have become increasingly rare. The child who grew up in the new century may have gone through the butt needle.

Roughly speaking, there are three main ways to enter the body.

Local absorption, such as dripping eyes, nasal drops, transparent stickers, and so on.

After entering the body through the digestive tract, it is mainly orally, as well as a small amount of enema.

Various injections. The injection must be pierced with a needle to pierce the skin or mucosa to allow the drug to enter the skin and quickly absorb it.

In the decades we grew up, the drug has changed a lot:

Some drugs that must be injected through muscle have been eliminated at that time, such as amino Berbby. Some drugs have oral preparations that are more conducive to absorbing more convenient use, such as some penicillin drugs. There are many types of drugs, the taste is good, the dosage type is rich, the preparation technology has improved ... It helps us fill the space of the original butt pin. The remaining muscle injections are mainly vaccinated, most of which are recommended in the upper arm bougainry muscles, as well as some child's thigh muscle injection.

Of course, for some drugs today, there is still room for injection of hip muscles, and the butt needle is most suitable for their absorption and utilization. Such as some vitamin preparations, glucocorticoids, rinseein that treats lung tuberculosis, and so on.

Doctors and nurses really want to give you a spanking needle, and do not have to wave their hands.

Safe drug use principles

Whether it is a butt needle or oral medicine, the basic safety principle is the same:

Being able to take oral muscle injection and intravenous infusion;

It is also safe to regulate the operation of the butt needle. When there is a need, you do n’t need to resist. Just follow the doctor's advice;

Children are not reducing adults. Children should use children's medicine;

For the doctor's advice on time and the medicine on time;

The medication is subject to the needs of the condition.

Using multiple drugs may interact together, it is recommended to use it under the guidance of a doctor;

Don't panic before taking the medicine, read clearly (recommended for drug assistant app);

The medicine is concentrated in the medicine box, placed in a cool and dry place at home, and do not let children get it casually. (Except for a few special drugs)

In the future, I hope we will not have pain in medicine that hurts and pain.
