You can also use this function

//Retrieve image from database and display it on html webpage    
function displayImageFromDatabase(){    
//use global keyword to declare conn inside a function    
global $conn;    
$sqlselectimageFromDb = "SELECT * FROM `imageuploadphpmysqlblob` ";    
$dataFromDb = mysqli_query($conn, $sqlselectimageFromDb);    
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($dataFromDb)) {    
echo '';    
}

Insert it into mysql database like this :

$image = $_FILES['imagefile']['tmp_name'];
$name = $_FILES['imagefile']['name'];
$image = base64_encode(file_get_contents(addslashes($image)));
