Everyone's heard a horror story but you never hear the majority of cases where everything's fine. After my first was removed (afternoon) I had to teach (evening). The only problem was drinking water because it was out of a fountain and too cold.

I only had a local anaesthetic so the worst part is the initial injection but they gave me a topical anaesthetic to make that easier. The sensation of pressure and the sound were unpleasant.

Pay attention to the after care instructions!
