Multiple injections from the same syringe

I don't see any reason to change the needle. If you are wiping the area with alcohol wipes there is nothing wrong with injecting and then taking it out and inject in a different body part using the same needle. When I used to do prolotherapy the doc would fill a syringe up with 6ml of solution and inject in 6-7 areas in my elbow or shoulder. Also, just the other day my other doc did a needling procedure on me and pulled the needle in and out several times. I always switch the needle after I draw out of the vial because I use a 20g needle, but I would never change the needle if I was injecting the volume of one syringe into 2 body parts; it's your own body and not like you are sharing needles with someone else.

True but I also keep in mind the pin becomes dull and damaged after just one poke. I have enough scar tissue to be reusing dull pins but to each their own. There use to be some good pics of what a pin looks like before and after one poke under a microscope, it has always stuck with me.
