Shots are not supposed to hurt!. !. !.well, not a lot!. Relax yourself and think about something that calms you!. Don't think about pain!. That way, it won't feel too bad!. !. !.you probably won't even notice that you got your shot if you distract yourself!. !. !.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Ya know relaxing is going to be your best bet, but also I have noticed that if instead of looking away when they are about to give you a shot, like most people do, try actually watching them do it, it is a little less of a suprise and you are expecting it to sting so it kinda helps!.

Ask if the shot can go in the butt instead of the arm!. My doctor always gives shots that way and it stings a lot less!.
Also, try squeezing a fist or gritting your teeth when the shot goes in!. This distracts your mind and body from the shot and makes it less painful!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
