It Isn't Just The Size Of The Needle...

...Sometimes it's where you stick it.

If you're the type of patient who panics at the very sight of a syringe, you may want to stop going to the doctor altogether. According to recent reports from the medical community, as the country's asses continue to grow larger, the need for new needles to inject medicine into them may soon increase dramatically as well.

Recent findings show that only 30% of the injected dosage of medicine makes it through the buttock's fatty tissue to reach and be absorbed by the muscle in most American men and women. The results may lead to a change in using longer needles to assist with injectable medicines for patients with excess body and bum fat.

In a related story, veterinarians in England are now looking into whether the findings will carry over for animals with excessive weight gain as well, to which this cat replied, "Meow, Meow Meow. Meow Meow Meow Meow?"

Good Question.
