No. I offered to numb it but that requires a shot or two. Patient said the pain yesterday (when the hospital nurse changed it) wasn't that bad & not definitely not bad enough to want a shot(s).That was good. Do you use any kind of local pain killer when re-packing the gauze?

Most patients tell me it's not that painful to change the packing.
I do soak the gauze w/ saline (water is also fine) before I remove it then it doesn't stick to the wound.
