You can easily get 100ml of fluid into him within 1 min because you can squeese the bag to push the fluid into the skin faster. That's what the vet does as well.<BR/><BR/>Because the fluid goes in faster, it will tend to swell up the injected area as the fluid can't move away as quickly. What Cousin R can do is to gently massage the area around the needle, pushing the fluid into other parts of the body.<BR/><BR/>Tadah, all fluid in within 1 min. Less stress for Megat and for humans as less time spent.<BR/><BR/>One thing I learnt on the job is that sometimes the fluid just won't flow in. Just turn the needle a little or push in a little deeper and with this new position, the fluid will flow again. <BR/><BR/>There are times also the fluid won't flow because the a part of the tube is squashed. Just find that squashed part and massage it back to its original round shape. But try to do this before you jab him.KXBChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02215821865859902946noreply@blogger.com
