I just got back from the vet for my snakes nose/infection and I need to inject him with baytril. Is there any advice that anyone can give? I'm really scared and never done shots before, she showed me how to do it, but I'm paranoid I'm going to hit the spine. I don't look forward to this at all. Any advice or anything? Any tips/tricks?

She also gave me silvadene cream to inject into the incision for 2-3 days.
