I am on the kind where you mix it up and then inject. The needle is very small and fairly painless. I have had the prefilled syringes and the needles are much bigger and hurt more. I am also a nurse and just above the knee doesn't sound good. You want to inject more in the thigh area. A good measure is to place the width of your hand above the knee and the width of your other hand at the groin. The area inbetween your hands is appropriate area to be injecting.
