Would it bother you more to get or to give an injection?
If you've never given an injection before, then just answer based on how it makes you feel to just think about doing it.

I don't mind giving injections, but just thinking about getting one myself, makes me pretty queasy. It's the feeling of the liquid going into my flesh that weirds me out, not the needle.
I've had to give lots of injections, to both people and animals. It never really got any easier to do, even after the hundreth and even thousandth time! Especially with the animals, they'd be all fidgety, flex their muscles, and cause the needle to bend, or sometimes you'd hit a vein by accident and blood comes spurting out...it's not fun.
I had to inject medicine (I think it was an anticoagulant) into my husband after he had surgery. The shots had to go into the belly button area. It was gross.

I never did it but just imagining that I had to give one to someone who had a phobia of needles, to see that person scared or even experiencing pain. No thanks.
I'll take the injection.
