26 or higher number needle is normally used to give intradermal injections.
The doctor gave him several intradermal injections around the wound before stitching it up.

The needle length typically used for intradermal injections is 1/4 to 1/2 inch. This shorter length allows for precise and shallow delivery of medication into the dermis layer of the skin. It is important to use a smaller gauge needle (higher number) to reduce pain and trauma during the injection.
Intradermal injections are made into the middle layers of the skin. These injections are typically used for various purposes such as allergy testing or administering specific medications.
Intradermal injections are correctly administered when the tech
substances for skin tests and drugs that are irritating to muscle tissue
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.
types of injection or administering medication or drugs? * intradermal * subcutaneous * intravenous * intramuscular the terms say it all haha.
Injections just under the skin, so that you can see the needle while the medication is injected, are referred to as Intradermal. The PPD test for tuberculosis is administered this way. Injections administered into the layer below the skin are called subcutaneous. Insulin is administered this way. Injections which deliver medicine into a muscle are referred to as Intramuscular. Most immunizations are given this way, as are most antibiotic injections. Injections which deliver medicine directly into the bloodstream are referred to as Intravenous.
