Will i have to get poked with a needle when i get a cryosurgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Typically cryosurgery of the cervix is done without any local anesthetic because the freezing of the cervix actually numbs the cervix and minimizes the discomfort. You usually will experience a little cramping like a menstrual cycle and premedication with Ibuprofen can help with this.
