Summary

This study compares two simple methods to reduce pain from insulin injections in children aged 6 to 12 with type 1 diabetes. One method uses firm pressure around the injection site, and the other uses a small plastic device called a ShotBlocker. The goal is to see which approach works better at easing the sting of daily shots.
