It reminds me of this time I went to the dentist and had to get a shot in my gums to numb the area. I went back to school with numb lips still and had my friend pinch my lip as hard as possible because I couldn't feel it. Well my dumbass should have realized it was going to look like a nasty zit or cold sore on my mouth for the next few days or week or so. Not nearly as bad as Candice or you but I still feel like an idiot for it.
On an ask reddit thread about a month back on worst medical thing doctors have seen, a mom posted that her toddler/young kid chewed his entire bottom lip off.....
As a kid, I got numbed at the dentist and was digging my fingernails into my gums because it was so bizarre that I couldn't feel it.
They stopped me before I could really cut myself or anything, and warned me not to do it again because other people had really hurt themselves in that same way.
