The best thing is to be bold. Face the needle. After all the needle is only 2 gm whereas your weight may be 60 or 70 kg.

If you have needle phobia, consider these precautions:
Communicate with healthcare professionals: Inform them about your fear so they can take steps to make you more comfortable.
Distraction techniques: Bring headphones to listen to music or practice deep breathing to divert your attention during the procedure.
Relaxation techniques: Learn and practice relaxation exercises to help manage anxiety.
Look away: Ask the healthcare provider if you can look away during the injection to avoid seeing the needle.
Bring support: Have a friend or family member accompany you for emotional support.
Topical anesthetics: Discuss the possibility of using a numbing cream to minimize discomfort during needle procedures.
Gradual exposure: Work with a therapist to gradually expose yourself to needles in a controlled environment.

Yes, there is a solution for this. Lignocaine spray is available. It can be sprayed before giving injection. This will help you as it will help in alleviation of pain from injection.

Don't worry.... Just keep your mind calm and be ready for a ant bite scenario and you will loose the phobia.
