How do you like it better? injected Or orally?💉💊

I'm excited to participate in this engagement challenge.
Maintenance and services are essential requirements for the effective workability of any device. The human body must be maintained and serviced to increase its lifespan and efficiency. Most times the body breaks down due to the presence of pathogens. The health of the human body can be restored through various means such as the use of medication and other health therapies. These medications could be taken as pills(orally), injections (intramuscularly) and drips(intravenously).

Getting sick is never a desirable experience but I can remember in my childhood days, I and my siblings sometimes wished to become sick because of the privileges enjoyed like having to make choices of what to eat, not participating in house chores and other special care.

Taking pills is never a nice experience for me. That's why I do well to observe necessary health rules to keep fit. Though, once in a while I do take pills to relieve pain or for malaria treatment.

💉Which of these three routes of medication administration do you consider the fastest and most effective to relieve pain, why?

The fastest among intramuscular, intravenous and oral medications is intravenous. In Intravenous mediation, the administered drug goes directly into the vein thereby coming in direct contact with the blood, which transports it to its required destination bringing about an immediate correcting or reactivation of worn-out cell(s) as the case may be. It is taken as drips where the patient is allowed to maintain a particular position for a longer period compared to intramuscular. So it's more effective in relieving pain, though it also has tremendous disadvantages.

A man in my neighbourhood is blind today because of an increase in the dropping rate of the drip by careless health personnel. It is difficult to stop its reaction process after it has gotten into the blood. So all necessary analysis must be carried out by a professional healthcare giver to avoid complications.

💊 There are two ways to administer injected treatment, intravenous and intramuscular. Which of them do you prefer in case you need quick relief or discomfort?

I would prefer intramuscular because I wouldn't have to be held in a particular position for a prolonged period but I would allow the healthcare professional to decide the most convenient treatment depending on the severity of the illness and the profitability margin.

💉There is a very good medicine for our body vitamin B12, why do you think they indicate it more in injection and not in pills? Do you think they do not have the same components or the same effect?

Vitamin B12 also known as cobalamin is naturally present in eggs, milk, fish, etc. It helps with the formation and development of the brain, nerves and red blood cells.
Even though they have the same effect and components vitamin B12 injection is more effective because it goes directly into the muscle whereas the pills of vitamin B12 will have to pass through the digestive system where a good percentage of it is lost by excretion.

Most times when I have stomach pains or discomfort, the first thing I opt for if I'm in my home town is to immediately have a warm water enema. This has been quite relieving. Some other times, I just take a break from my routine activities and have quality relaxation if I have headaches.

💊If you are one of those who do not take pills and you do not like injections, what other method are you looking for to relieve pain or discomfort!?

If I have muscular discomfort, I would simply massage the place but if after doing all these things which I could term as first aid and there's no improvement I will intelligently seek medical attention from qualified personnel knowing that health is wealth.

I would like @nsijoro, @bossj23, and @basil20 to participate in this engagement challenge.
