It registers the pain, the invasion and shuts down blood flow to try and reduce damage. It can occur to anyone, I've seen a Medal of Honor winner pass out when having blood drawn. While there is no way to prevent it, you can do a number of things to make it less of a problem.

  3. Relaxation techniques can help reduce the occurrence and severity.
