Have you ever taken procaine? Have you ever been allergic to anything? D: Have you been injected with procaine (local * * *)? Are you allergic to anything? Patient: No. Patient: No, Doctor: That's good. Now I'll give you an injection. Please open your mouth as wide as possible. But relax. It won't hurt much. Now you have the injection. Please rinse your mouth and spit the water into the spittoon. If you think your heart is beating a little fast, it doesn't matter. That's what procaine does. It'll be all right soon. Now, do you feel numb? Do your lips and tongue feel swollen? This tooth is in poor condition. It requires a careful operation and may last a little longer than usual. Now, the tooth has been pulled out. Please bite the cotton ball tightly. Don't spit it out until half an hour from now. You can eat in 0 hours. But don't rinse your mouth today, because it may lead to bleeding. Please pay and get the medicine. D: Good. Now let me give you an injection first. Please open your mouth as wide as possible.
