An intradermal injection is made into the middle layers of the skin.
The four main types of injections are intramuscular (IM), subcutaneous (SC or SQ), intravenous (IV), and intradermal (ID). Intramuscular injections deliver medication deep into the muscle, subcutaneous injections administer it into the fatty tissue just under the skin, intravenous injections provide immediate effects by delivering drugs directly into the bloodstream, and intradermal injections are given into the dermis layer of the skin, often for allergy tests or vaccinations. Each type is used based on the medication's properties and the desired speed of absorption.

Intramuscular injections deliver medication deep into a muscle, while subcutaneous injections administer it into the fatty tissue just beneath the skin. Intravenous injections introduce substances directly into the bloodstream, providing rapid effects, and intradermal injections are given into the dermis, just below the epidermis, often used for allergy tests or vaccinations. Each type serves different purposes depending on the medication and desired effect.
Certain types of cortisone like Orthovisc and Supartz are egg based. People who have an allergy to chicken or eggs should not receive these types of cortisone injections.
Receiving seven injections in a single day is possible, but it depends on various factors such as the type of injections, the individual's health status, and the specific medical guidelines. For example, vaccinations or allergy shots may be administered in multiple doses in a day under medical supervision. However, it's essential to consult a healthcare professional to ensure safety and appropriateness for your specific situation.

There are a number of side effects. The main ones are that the lips can end up swollen and uneven. There can also be a danger of an allergy reaction the collagen itself.
Aspirating with intradermal injections is generally unnecessary because the injection is administered into the dermis, where there are fewer blood vessels compared to deeper tissues. Aspiration can cause discomfort and may lead to unnecessary delays in the procedure. Additionally, the risk of inadvertently withdrawing blood is low, and the primary goal of intradermal injections, such as in allergy testing or vaccinations, is to create a localized response rather than to target deeper structures.
Allergy specialists can give you medications and injections that will possibly help to desensitize you and reduce the effects of the allergic response. These don't always work and can be expensive, however. There are also breeds of dogs known to cause less or more of a problem for those with allergies. See the related question below for more detail.
