True and false diameter of the spinal needle is inversely proptional with headache?

You can have a headache with a small or large spinal needle. Depends more on how fast the medication is pushed through the needle and how much medication goes through.

Is a 22 gauge smaller than a 23 gauge needle?
Gauge is the term that indicates the diameter of the needle. Most commonly the needles that are used for medical purposed range from 7 Gauge to 33 Gauge, according to the Stubs scale. 7 Gauge needle will have the largest diameter while as the number increase, the diameter decreases. Therefore the 33 Gauge needle has the smallest diameter. So a 26 Gauge needle will have a smaller diameter than that of the 18 Gauge needle.

What does gauge refer to on needle size?
Diameter
What needle gauge has the smallest diameter?

Is a 25 gauge smaller than a 22 gauge needle?
Yes it is smaller in terms of diameter. Explanation: 25 gauge refers to a needle having an inner diameter of 1/25" (1/25 inches) and 22 gauge refers to a needle having an inner diameter of 1/22" (1/22 inches). Thus the 25 gauge needle has a smaller inner diameter than a 22 gauge needle.
Why it is easier sew with a pointed needle than with a blunted needle?
Pressure is inversely related to the area on which force is applied. As the needle has pointed edge the pressure would increase and so it would be easier to go through the cloth for sewing purpose
What are three standard dimensions of the needle?

What is a head of a pin?

How large are the needles used for EMG test?
When discussing needle size we can look at two characteristics: length and diameter.The length of the needle used can vary based upon the examiner's preference or how much tissue exists between the skin and the desired muscle for the doctor to examine. Most needles are usually around one and one half inches but the sizes tend to vary from 1-3 inches in lengthThe diameter of the needle is measured in gauges, with the larger the number of the gauge corresponding to a smaller diameter. Most needles used for EMGs range from 26 gauge to 30 gauge.Most of the pain that occurs with any needle insertion is usually from the initial insertion of the needle through the skin. This reduced by the technique of the doctor, the gauge (or diameter) of the needle, and the shape of the tip of the needle.
Does a 5cc or 10cc syringe have higher pressure?
The pressure generated by a syringe is a result of how hard the plunger is pushed and the internal diameter of the needle, not the size of the syringe.
