How much diesel do you suppose they insert in a tiny lump under the skin? I have no idea what sort of experience you have but the skin is invariably loose in that area. Probably between a tenth and a half a cc is enough to create a local pimple reaction. I used to inject my cat with that much insulin every morning under the skin of her neck and I guarantee she never felt it once.Thought it was pretty serious if diesel entered the skin under pressure. Suppose the cow would be culled before effects would be felt.
Besides which every cow is injected twice in that area at every TB test, so if you are saying that this is a serious welfare issue, tell the powers that be and vets to stop doing it on an industrial scale annually or sooner on all farms.
