Its the thickness, and not the length that affects the pain, so a 22 gauge is just slightly narrower than 21 gauge - hardly any difference!. You can use a needle as small as 30 gauge and 1/2 inch length ( 30 G x 1/2 inch)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I use BD's 30 gauge x 1/2 (12!.7mm) I'm pretty sure its just a standard needle!. I know I have tried the shorter "less painfull" ones before and actually caused some discomfort, as oppposed to the 30 gauge's where I don't even feel it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I can't stand needles!. I use 31 guage 5/16", at least I can stand still long enough to have my shot!. I don't think I could do it with a bigger needle!. These are the smallest that my pharmacy carries!. They don't hurt much!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
31 guage that's what I use!. I'm such a wimp, it's the smallest, i also use short needles too!. They're NICE
21guage!? OUCH!!!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

The higher the gage the smaller the needle and the less likely they will hurtWww@Answer-Health@Com
