Hypodermic needles are used for injecting fluids into or withdrawing fluids from the body. This can include administering medication, vaccinations, or drawing blood for medical tests. They are also used for injecting or extracting fluids from laboratory animals, plants, or other materials in scientific experiments. Additionally, hypodermic needles are commonly used in acupuncture and other alternative medicine practices. 

Hypodermic needles are used to inject substances under the skin or into a body cavity. They are made of a sharp, hollow tube of steel, aluminum, or plastic, with a sharp point on one end and a small opening at the other end. When the point is inserted into the skin, the opening is placed over the vein, and the substance is injected by pushing down on the plunger.
