Needlephobia is now recognised by doctors as a very real condition.

Needlephobia mostly affects children but, if left unaddressed,
can prevail well into adult life.

With modern medicine more and more reliant upon the use of
needles for blood tests and the administration of drugs,
the issue of needlephobia is becoming an increasingly important
one for doctors, nurses, carers and patients.
