Hi Sir, I am using lilly insulin pen with humalog mix 25/75 cartridge. My question is which mm needle is suitable 4 mm, 5 mm or 6 mm? Currently I am using novo 6 mm needle. Can I use 4 mm needle? Should I pinch the skin while using 4 mm needle or should I directly inject the insulin without pinching the skin?

All the needle length you mentioned are ok. Smaller needles are associated with less pain. With 4 mm needle you need not have to make skin fold.

Everyday I give insulin to my mother. Yesterday after giving her insulin by mistake I pricked my finger with the same needle with a drop of blood flowing from my finger. Is there any thing to worry about? Can that cause diabetes in me? Please answer.

Just be sure she is not suffering from hepatitis B or C. If not then just take inj T intramuscular If yes which is very rare. You need to take treatment And BTW diabetes is not communicable it does not spread by needle injury but if you remain sedentary n don't exercise regularly there are chances you may get diabetes due to family history.

Sir/madam, I am using insulin humalog mix25/75 and using bd needle 4 mm. Some says we should pinch the skin and take insulin shot some says no need to pinching the skin for 4 mm needle. Can I pinch the skin or take directly? I like to pinch the skin for avoiding going into muscle. I take insulin in abdomen. Even if pinching is not necessary can I still pinch the skin and take insulin shot?

Skin for most people is around 2.7 to 3 mm in thickness. So with 4 mm needles pinching might not be necessary since without pinching also the Insulin would enter subcutaneous tissue and not muscle tissue.

Your technique may need modification. Pinch the skin, introduce the needle perpendicularly, not at an angle. After you have injected the insulin, count to 10 to allow some time. Then remove the needle and do nothing to the injection site. You can always use pen device to ensure consisted delivery of insulin with negligible discomfort.
