Way to make Saline hurt less?

Hey everyone, as per what my friend said, saline infusions do ache a bit (belly infusion) and I was wondering if there's a way to help mitigate that or to make it hurt less. I tried glucose recently and that has no pain, but is a bit more costly.

Any recommendations?

Sure glucose costs a bit more, but it's almost pain free and I only need to use half as much for the same result, so do the math, and it's a deal.

Dextrose has the same effect as glucose, doesn't it? But if you do Dex/Glucose and add saline as well, you get a little extra swell too! :3

I buy "Ringer Lactaat" in The Netherlands, doesn't hurt at all.
Still have 20L of saline in my closet bud stands there for 3 of 4 years now.
I don't use saline becouse it hurts.

I have not done as much saline as n2o but it did not hurt me unless it was going really fast.
Try slowing down some.
How long is it taking you, and how much are you using?

Ringers acetat doesnt hurt one bit. But costs more. It bypasses liver and can be excreted by the muscles too for those of us with crap organs.

It hurts me even at the slowest amount, though it's less painful that way too. It can be as small as 10 ml and it'll still sting.

My lady freind did 5 litre boobies in under 2 hrs. She said shes never going back to the cheap stuff lol. It also used to sting me bad but my electrolytes are whack from poor kidney function.

The acetate makes me feel better for days. Where as the 0.9% makes me feel like i ate 500 crisps
