What is it like to have a mole removed?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:It’s nothing to stress about. I had a small tumour removed from my arm a few years back after finding a suspicious mole on my arm. The doctor gave me an injection which stung slightly, and then I felt nothing other than a slight pressure when he was cutting the thing out. He let me watch, but if you are squeamish just don’t look. He then put in two stitches, which again I did not feel. He stuck the bandage on and I was ready to leave. After the anaesthetic wore off my arm felt slightly itchy. I went back shortly afterward to have the stitches out. The doctor just snipped part of the stitch, and pulled the whole thing out. It took a fraction of a second and I felt nothing, even with no painkillers. The site was slightly itchy afterward, but easy to ignore. If you have any questions about details, feel free to ask, but I think I’ve covered everything.
