The floating needle can be removed by pressing the surrounding skin and gently lifting the hose.
Floating needles can be removed by pressing the skin around the needle hole with the thumb and forefinger of the left hand, then using the forefinger and thumb of the right hand to pinch the hose of the floating needle and slowly lift the hose of the floating needle out of the skin, and in the process, do not rotate the hose so as not to cause damage to the patient’s subcutaneous soft tissues.
After removing the floating needle, you need to use a clean, sterilized cotton swab to press down on the hole to reduce subcutaneous bleeding, but if the patient has severe bruising and swelling at the needle opening, you can apply ice packs for one day, and heat packs for one day after that.
After removing the floating needle, if you notice any discomfort, it is recommended to go to a specialized hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
