Question:

Answers:

Other Answers:
It is not very painful, just a little uncomfortable. I will explain the procedure. The doctor cleans the area where he will biopsy. Then he gives you a little shot, feels like a little bee sting, but the shot numbs the area for the biopsy. Once he gives you the shot, he uses ultrasound to guide the needle right into the area of the biopsy. You won't feel this at all. Then he takes a very small section of the area. Again, you won't fell this either. Then you are all done. He sends the tissue off to the lab and you get to wait a few days for the results.
