Hee. We're actually very good about blocking/sedating/anesthetizing (when it's safe to do so) them so they don't feel much -- mostly because they have a tendency to kick our heads off if they do. But it is a balancing act, since anesthesia isn't always the safest thing, and so we use a lot of local blocks. (This time the abscess had to be opened beyond the block, which is why the quote was so funny.)
