DO NOT MASSAGE; it's painful and will likely cause the medication to divert to the subcutaneous layer instead.
Don't worry, we're all learning.

Why would you massage after injection? It can cause bruising and skin damage.

Helps with absorption. I am studying for nclex and that was the rationale

[@-michot9653]

Someone looking to verify what muscle you have used? That is the main point; you missed it to explain!

[@karinasmith5183]

Nurse need to check what muscle is used only when administering medicine. This should NOT be done when vaccine as administered. I am not sure why, but it is recommendation by research.

[@santoshakumarsenapati1518]

Thanks buddy

[@Unknown-2015]

شفيها مستعجله

[@bosslady5204]

What about multi I’m injects. Like 6 math receiving dtap, pcv 13 and then 1st flu
Since flu was new I put flu in left leg by itself, but how close can 2 im injections be given on the same site?

[@jonicanada3671]

One inch apart.

[@StephyGrowsWeed]

aspiration?

[@dret22]

Not necessary anymore

[@StephyGrowsWeed]

@@dret22 it is. Got taken back into RKI (german) recommendations since there were many cases of myocarditis. Other countries also got it back in their recommendations.

[@firdausizhar2527]

I thought so. It should have been aspirated first
