We all screw up.When you did screw the needle on. Did it squirt? Did you also perform a second needle prime? Or “air shot.”I inject into my stomach or legs.I normally hold the needle under the skin for a short while (few seconds) to avoid any bleed or back gush of insulin?It’s quite normal to be a little tentative with injecting (& possibly a little shaky?) it will become more routine & you’ll handle it like a pro..Hygiene products. I just use what I use bathing.But if you mean hand washing for blood testing? Soap & water can suffice..</blockquote>
