How do you rotate your injection sites when giving yourself shots?

Your doctor or nurse will show you where you can inject your medicine. Keep track of where on your body you inject your medicine. You may want to note the site and the date on a diagram of your body. Give your next shot in another area, or at least an inch away from your last shot.
