What is a "syringe"?

A syringe is a medical device used to inject or withdraw fluids from the body. It includes a hollow tube with a pusher that fits tightly inside and a thin hollow needle attached to the end. Syringes allow for precise control over the fluid and are commonly used to give medications, vaccines, or other substances directly into the bloodstream, muscles, or under the skin. They can also withdraw blood for various tests that help in diagnosing patients. Syringes are essential tools in healthcare settings for delivering treatments and performing medical procedures with accuracy and safety.
