Does Vasectomy Hurt?
The application of a local anaestetic is uncomfortable. Most patients compare it with a local anaestetic at the dentist. After skilled application of local anaestetic most patients should be completely pain free. However, I do feel there are differences between doctors in the application of local anaestetic as well as in the type of local anaestetic used. There is good evidence, that pain and bleeding after a vasectomy is statistically much lower when a no-scalpel approach is used. This may be due to reduced trauma during surgery.
