Needle Shield for Injections

A needle shield for hiding a needle from a patient during an injection is disclosed. The needle shield comprises an attaching portion for attaching the needle shield to a syringe and an opaque collapsible element extending from the attaching portion, the collapsible element having an orifice extending therethrough and being of a sufficient length to conceal a needle from view when the needle is disposed in the orifice, and wherein the collapsible element collapses and conceals the needle as the needle is inserted into a patient's skin and expands to retain its original shape as the needle is withdrawn from the patient's skin so that the patient does not see the needle during an injection.
