I went to the dentist today. She stated she used septocaine. While giving administering the septocaine, sparks were shocking me and burning my tongue . After the septocaine wore out, my tongue is raw and there are puncture marks on my lips . Are there chemicals in spectocaine which could possibly have similar signs affects?
Hi, Septocaine is a local anesthetic which usually does not have any side effects until one is specifically allergic to it, which is a rare occurrence. While giving any local anesthetic there is a burning sensation in the area where the material is getting deposited, which is normal. If your dental procedure took a long time then the cracking of lips and raw tongue maybe due to constantly keeping your mouth open. Lips get Chat Doctor.  If the discomfort persists or increases, I would strongly recommend that you consult your dentist. Regards
