No. Applying the blood sugar sensor shouldn’t hurt at all.

The sensor contains a small filament, and during application, this goes into the fleshy part of your upper arm. While you may feel a small pinch or a light tingling sensation when you apply it, it shouldn’t hurt.

Because the filament enters your bloodstream in order to collect your blood sugar data, you may see a small amount of blood in the center of the sensor. This is completely normal so don't worry.
