Some individuals my also feel a sting around the place where the needle was inserted.

A very few injured their patience by putting a needle into a major organ.

It is also average with the first 1 or 2 processes to have a feeling of deep relaxation or even short term disorientation right after the procedure. These side effects should go away within 24-48 hours.
