The first true hypodermic syringe was created by Alexander Wood in 1853. He modified a regular syringe, which at that time was used for treating birthmarks, by adding a needle. He then used this new device for introducing morphine into the skin of patients who suffered from sleeping disorders.
The first print evidence of the use of âpins and needlesâ to mean a prickling sensation does come in the mid-19th century, although the term had been used as early as 1810 to mean âa state of excessive uneasinessâ or nervousness.
