Is it true that the gardasil shot hurts really bad?
Q. I have been asking my friends and a couple of people on here told me that it is really painful. I have to get three shots this afternoon, gardasil, meningitis, and chicken pox and now I am really scared. Then I have to get two more gardasil shots later. What is it like, please tell me everything if it hurts I want to know! Does it make a difference where you get it? It goes in your arm right?

A. no they dont really but u will be a little sore after. yes it is in your arm. it is better to get it because it protects u. but people have different tolerances for pain. some people it doesnt hurt but for some it does. for people who r scared of shots and pain it probably hurts them because it is in their head. dont worry. it didnt hurt me or the people i know that got it. good luck!!! hope i helped!!!

A. Believe it or not doctors are not taught the proper way or place to give an injection in medical school whereas nurses are taught proper technique and position in nursing school. Nurses give more shoots so they have more practice.

what shot hurts the most (at the doctors)?
Q. ok just wondering whats thw worst shot that hurts the most. say what it is and on a scale of 1-10 1 being not that bad and 10 being the worst?
Asked by shake it metro station!!!! - Fri Jan 2 21:02:22 2009 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. In my opinion it's the HPV shot (Guardisil). I was too old to get it, but I'm a nurse in a clinic and all the girls that get it say that it hurts the worst out of the ones that they have to get at that age (Tetnus, Meningitis). We actually have them sit with an ice pack for about 10 mins before getting the shot to help numb up the area.

A. Having an injection should be fairly painless if the person administering it does it properly. So, I'd say bursting a spot. Urgh.

My arm hurts like i received a shot in it?
Q. So today in class, all of the sudden i started to get this weird pain through my arm and it only got worse, it felt sort of like when you get a shot, but the pain would go away and it started to hurt worse. Well it started to feel better and then the pain came back in my shoulder and my arm. Anybody know what is wrong with it? I have no recollection of hitting it against anything, last night one of the cat's bit me on the wrist of my arm that is hurting though.

A. That's odd. I wouldn't worry too much about it yet. Give it a few days and see what happens. If it gets worse, or if more symptoms start showing up, then you should ask a doctor about it. If it gets better and goes away, then you're fine :)

A. Heeey, if your talking about your second piercing like, on your ear lobe, then no, it doesn't really hurt. but as i'm petrifyed of needles, i went really pale when i had mine done. it doesn't hurt, but it's just a short sharp shock. no pain at all. make sure (if you have it done) after you have it done that you have something sweet such as a lolly pop or something, to bring your blood sugar levels back up as letting them drop more than normal will make you pass out, as there is more blood vessels in the part of the lobe where they peirce your second hole. hope i helped. good luck. x

How bad does the Gardasil shot hurt compared to a tetanus shot and how can I convince my dad to let me get it?
Q. I remember getting a tetanus shot before 7th grade and surprisingly, it didn't hurt. But I've heard that the Gardasil vaccine hurts REALLY bad. I think I want to get it (only thing is I've heard that it hurts very bad and that there's controversy over it), but how can I convince my dad? Or can I just go to the doctor and get it without him knowing (I did that with birth control)? I'm 16.

A. You shouldn't really feel the tetanus shot. I have had at least 4 of them over the years. All have been given in the arm and I didn't feel a thing. There was no after effects either. My 7 year old didn't feel a thing either. Best of luck - Bubble

A. I'm sorry to tell you this, but it actually does hurt more. It's not really the pain though, more that your arm will be sore for the next day or so. I used to be really scared of shots, but last summer I had mono and they gave me a shot on the upper part of my left butcheek. It hardly hurt at all! Now I always ask if they can do it there. You might want to try this too.

What shot hurts more?
Q. Which shot hurts more? a novacaine shot for a cavity, or a lidocaine shot for a mole removal? I want a mole removed from my back and im not sure how that will go so im wondering if the shot is bad. Ive had novacaine its not really bad at all so im just trying to compare the two thanks
Asked by Johnny - Wed Sep 10 00:11:50 2008 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Shots for dental work definitely hurt more. Lidocaine, once injected, acts almost instantly. Usually, the majority pain experienced from a lidocaine injection, or any injection for that matter, is caused by injecting the liquid too rapidly, causing the tissue to stretch rapidly and hurt. This happens frequently in dental procedures, however, subcutaneous injections used for mole removal are much simpler, easier to access, and the tissue "gives" more than dental tissues, making it easier to control the rate of administration, thus making the injection practically painless in the hands of an experienced medical professional.

A. If you mean physically hurts more, than shot will hurt more as fluMist is delivered through the nose. Shot has inactivated virus, but nasal spray has attenuated virus, which is a live virus. I found a good article that might give you insights:

A. The best thing to do is apply a cold compress for 10-15 mins at a time. Take it off and apply again, alternating. Cold is the only thing that will calm down the inflammation and help numb the pain. Take some Tylenol or Advil as that will help with the inflammation also. Do not apply any kind of topical medication, especially something like Icy Hot. Icy Hot can be irritating to anything that is open and a shot, no matter how small the needle, creates a opening from the needle in which something like that can seep under the skin and burn and irritate the skin. This may cause an even bigger problem for you. So, just apply ice and wait for the swelling and irritation to go away. The medication is what is causing you the problem. It… [cont.]

What hurts more to get shot by, paintball or airsoft?
Q. Or is it about the same?
Asked by GoAway - Mon Jun 7 13:49:38 2010 - - 9 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Definitely a paint ball! The paint ball is being propelled much faster than an airsoft BB because it is being propelled by C02 or compressed air. And also a paint ball is heavier than an airsoft BB. Greater mass + greater air speed = more pain!

A. It will definitely hurt your chances of being healthy if you get it. That hurt will be far more lasting and destructive to your overall health than the pain it causes. Go to this web site and watch this free video and you will be more informed about vaccinations in general: A majority of people have the virus. The good news is that your immune system typically takes care of it and you won't get any physical signs of having it. The Gardisil vaccination is a complete joke and should never be used. It has caused deaths and many other illnesses and is being promoted by the Merck company that stands to profit about $2 billion dollars from the sale of this junk. It only addresses 4% of the over 100 viruses responsible for cervical cancer.… [cont.]

Do you think it hurts getting shot?
Q. or do you think you just go into shock? say in the leg or arm etc? Reason i ask is, in films when someone gets shot they never moan or cry they still manage to talk, sometimes they get up and fight etc.
