Told my friend in Finland that sometimes, I slap my patient arms for veins to become visible to site IV access or obtain blood sample. She started sobbing profusely and said, “How can you be slapping a human that is already sick when you can just use a VEIN FINDER?’
Initially, I felt she was mad for her to cry but later I realized I was the mad one for not crying too. My country has made the abnormal seem normal for me. My country has ruined me.
After that, she sent me a picture of this vein finder. With this device you can never slap a patent’ s arm for veins. You can never pierce a patient more than once looking for vein to put cannula no matter how fat he is because it brings all the Veins right before your face. 
She asked me, DR.PENKING in Nigeria you practice Medicine as if you are in a war-thorn country. Why is that? You mean you haven’t used this device before?” I was so ashamed of myself.
Because of the failing system in Nigeria, common venepuncture in a fat patient na fight

The Doctor is sweating, the patient is sweating, everybody is sweating. Why? Because the government has refused to do what they are supposed to do? How long will it continue like this??
The worst scene is when a Doctor in Nigeria wants to site a line for a fat baby. The baby can be pierced more than 20 times. She will cry until tears refuse to come out .Both hands are pierced.Both feet are pierced. Sometimes the baby’s hair is shaved to look for vein in the head
Most times the mother is sent out of the procedure room because most mothers can’t stand seeing their child go through such trauma. But this is something that can be averted with a device as simple as a vein finder. Why are there no vein finders in all Nigerian Public hospitals?
Many of you are in my DMs asking to buy the vein finder from me. Well, I don’t sell it and I don’t know anybody who does. However, I sell and buy all types of Cryptocurrencies (about 5000 different types). I teach Cryptocurrency trading, Forex Trading and Stocks Trading 🤗
