Step 5: Set aside the lancing device and wait a few seconds for a
blood drop to form. Keeping the hand warm, lowering the hand to
waist level and gently massaging your wrist, palm or the base of the
finger helps the flow of blood. Use a different site each time you test to
help prevent soreness and calluses.
NOTE: A lancet should only be used once. Dispose of used lancet in a
safe manner so as not to cause accidental injury.
WARNING: DO NOT share used lancets with another person. To prevent
possible infection, a used lancet should not be touched by another
person.
