Abstract:
A device for reducing pain having an elongated shaft for grasping with a hand. The elongated shaft has a blunt end member. The blunt end member is shaped to allow a practitioner to apply force from the blunt end member onto a target tissue before using a syringe and needle to inject a fluid (e.g. anesthesia) into the tissue. There is a bore (hole) in the blunt end member, through which the needle is passed and subsequently, pushed into the tissue for injection of the fluid.
