Sharp stabbing pain - During toe cyst removal procedure, a story of anesthesia failure
[Summary]
- Pain occurs every time the thumb touches for 1 to 2 years
- Ultrasound and CT results revealed a benign vascular cyst in the big toe and ankle.
- While undergoing local anesthesia during a hospital procedure, the anesthesia did not work, and I could still feel the pain and suffering from the cutting!
---------------------------------
1. Pain perception
Since 1 to 2 years ago, I have been experiencing pain whenever my big toe touches something during daily activities.
So I walked, ran, and hiked without touching my big toe. Still, I continued to feel pain.
I kept my thumb off the ground while working, placing my foot carefully. The same when I was at home, I didn't put weight on my left big toe because of the severe pain!
I couldn't hold it any longer, so I decided to go to the hospital. I took a day off and scheduled a medical appointment!
2. Diagnosis of vascular cyst
When I go to the hospital, I can roughly understand what the doctors are talking about, but...
It was said that ultrasound and CT scans are necessary to accurately diagnose toe and ankle pain.
He agreed to it.
Ultrasound was not covered by health insurance at that time!
Still, since there's no other choice, I have to perform an ultrasound.
The wait time is long, and the CT scan is the same.
I waited a long time for the filming!
After waiting for a while and looking at the imaging results,
The cause of the thumb pain and ankle pain was found to be a vascular cyst.
Fortunately, it's just a voice issue, so it's not cancer!
So, will the procedure be performed after numbing the big toe area?
Or, will you undergo general anesthesia surgery along with ankle vascular tumor and stay hospitalized for a week?
They asked me.
At that time, the situation was such that I could not be hospitalized for a week after surgery.
So, I chose a partial procedure and decided to receive outpatient treatment for two weeks after the procedure.
3. No anesthesia during surgery
Procedure for removing toe vascular cyst on the day of the operation
I have arrived at the hospital to do this.
With the COVID-19 negative test certificate!
So, I waited, then administered anesthesia and performed the procedure.
It means performing the procedure while lying on the operating table, under anesthesia, and in a prepared state for the procedure.
They said they understand.
Starting the procedure, I cut the toe with a scalpel.
Oh no! The pain is like being cut with a heated scalpel.
Like being cut by a sharp knife heated by fire
The pain, the ache, the suffering—all of it was felt completely and vividly!
How much pain did I feel from the time of my toe injury?
It felt like a stabbing pain in my toes for several minutes.
Sewing with a needle, even when stitching flesh with a needle
The pain felt like suffering itself!
During the actual procedure time,
I thought I was going to die from the pain~ haha
I couldn't think of anything else but "Please, finish quickly, finish quickly."
I thought it would hurt because it was local anesthesia!
It turned out later that the anesthesia was not administered properly.
When you go to the dentist and get anesthesia, it doesn't hurt at all!
You should have said that it hurt and that the anesthesia didn't work during the procedure!
However, since this was my first time experiencing this, I naturally thought I had to endure the pain!
After some time and talking with acquaintances, I realized that I wasn't anesthetized!
The pain of those times is still vividly imprinted in my mind even now, after all this time!
If you also undergo the procedure like I do,
Please say that you did not receive anesthesia if you are in pain!
Therefore, the pain experience during procedures without anesthesia
I would like to share it~
P.S.
1. Just so you know, the doctor who performed the procedure still doesn't realize that the anesthesia hasn't worn off~ haha
2. I am now completely recovered~ haha
