Where can I get an injectable local anaesthetic?

I want to do a DIY excision and am only missing the local anaesthetic needed to perform the task.

I am referring to the kind of local anaesthetic used by dermatologists. They inject it several times around the location of the area to be excised and then wait for the numbness to set in.

Does anyone know of a source for this injectable local anaesthetic?

Um...

I don't think doing surgery on yourself is a very good idea man. Maybe at best you can find some lidocaine or benzocaine and try that?

Your idea is very bad though.

C'mon guys what is with the advice giving? People are shooting up dope mailed to them from strangers and now all these heroes show up? I can't help you with local anesthetic but I support your bad decisions because 'merica

What exactly are you planning on excising?

I think this is what you need:

Benzocaine is cheap and easy to synthesize yourself with a purity of 100% (provided the reactants you use are pure). Benzocaine is the ester of p-aminobenzoic acid, so all you'd have to do is a simple fischer esterification (using sulfuric acid and ethanol) to get some very nice pure benzocaine powder. It's not very water-soluble so find a biologically accepted organic solvent when injecting it.

A bunch of injectable anaesthetics are available over the counter in Germany. Come in single use glass ampoules, sterile of course. I would suspect regulation could be similar in other countries. Have you checked your local laws? Lignocaine, lidocaine, benzocaine, procaine are all that I can think of off the top of my head. Even with all the equipment performing surgery on yourself, like others have state, is still not a great idea.

What do you want to remove OP? I can't see this ending well, there are a lot of variables and things that could go wrong, at BEST your chances of doing it correctly seem somewhat remote, at worst well, you could die.

This isn't a good idea.

Grow some god damn balls (or labia) and don't use local anaesthetic. Use a sharp scalpel. You can also freeze it, they sell these things certain stores that are meant to freeze off warts, they basically freeze burn a specific site and then over a week it's a blister that falls off.

Cocaine is also an injectable anaesthetic, and make sure to cauterize the wound if necessary.

What exactly are you trying to do?

Just buy any coke anywhere its cut to shit to lidocane and shit that you'd probably have enough there plus its coke so you'll feel really good while cutting your whatever off...

What surgery are you planning on doing?


[1 Points] DinoNeedsMe:

Benzocaine, Lidocaine, or Tetracaine are what you want most likely. I'm not sure if any are available on DNMs though

One that is definitely available on basically any DNM though is cocaine. That being said I wouldn't recommend cocaine over benzo/lido/tetra-caine due to the negative effects that come with it

outback dr here. you need iodine. you need to disinfect the area with rubbing alcohol. You need a numbing agent like lidocaine and you inject the surface area. be sure you are NOT near a major blood vessel. cover with iodine when done and patch edit: please be careful with scalpel, i.e. make a very small incision. you willbleed a lot. have plenty of gauze ready and prepare for pain when pushing but you got to get it all out. if wound is too big.aka deep, you gotta put a wick in it. you want to heal it from inside out so noo stitches

Done a few of my own ingrown toenails with some lidocaine powder bought on eBay, though the key is just killing a 6 pack first. Only really needed the lidocaine the first time because I wasn't sure what I was doing and had to fiddle around in there a bit. Most recent time I couldn't find the lidocaine and just didn't bother, got in got out, it's not so bad.

Whenever I go to the hospital I rummage through the drawers and grab a couple bottles along with sutures and whatnot. Always good to have in the first aid kits in the car and house.

Be careful what you're using and where.Ideally, you should use Lidocaine or Marcaine/Bupivicaine. If it's in a finger, toe, ear, nose, or any other small appendage, do not use it with epinephrine as that has the potential to strangulate the tissue and cause it to die. If you're using it anywhere else, make sure to use with epinephrine mixed 1:100,000 or less. Please make sure to properly prep the area to be excised with rubbing alcohol, iodine, or chlorhexidine scrub. Make sure you have clean sterile dressings for afterwards. Make sure you use a tourniquet if it's on any of your appendages or it'll bleed like a bitch.

Better yet, don't fucking do surgery on yourself if you aren't trained in surgery.

Just crush up some Tylenol, dissolve it in everclear, and inject it.
