Lidocaine is used almost universally in the procedure from what I understand, but it's something that is not really talked about much due to the legality of applying non topical anesthetics.

Ah, okay. Good to know!

Something I'm reminded of today is how important the tongue is for swallowing. Trying to suck down my normal saliva output is a bit pain inducing and I've been putting off eating for hours now.
nekowafer:
Can you get some ice in there to make things less horribly painful? I have some idea of how difficult that is since I got my tonsils out a couple of years ago, but I could still use my tongue then, for the most part.
I still want my tongue split but I wonder if I'll be able to handle the pain of it.
ackblom12:
Well, if this follows the same line of progression as it did the first time, most of the outright pain is in the first day, with a week's worth of miserably uncomfortable days following. It's also been something that I'd highly recommend for those interested simply for how much I've enjoyed having it. It's been we'll worth the relatively small periods of pain and discomfort.
