Why do flu shots have to hurt so much. :C

    I've seen people get horrible bruising from the intradermal ones. As a certified vaccinater, I can honestly say that the flu shot shouldn't hurt while you're getting it. The soreness after the shot should go away in a day or two. I've definitely had people inject WAY too slowly and that was the only time it hurt me.

    @Applepi I don't get bruising from it, but my husband does.

    Injecting slowly shouldnt hurt, sticking the needle in slowly can. And TDAP is one of the worst shots you will get. I heard smallpox was fricken terrible though
