Measure
Ice Pack
Ice will be placed on the breast prior to radioactive tracer injection (usual treatment) Ice pack: Ice cools the skin and can provide some numbing for pain.
Buzzy(R)
A vibrating distraction device (Buzzy(R)) and ice will be placed on the breast prior to radioactive tracer injection. Buzzy(R): Buzzy provides non-invasive pain relief by vibrating and cooling the skin which distracts from pain sensations. Ice pack: Ice cools the skin and can provide some numbing for pain.
Lidocaine Patch
A lidocaine patch (4% topical) will be placed on the breast for at least one hour prior to radioactive tracer injection Lidocaine patch: Lidocaine is a local anesthetic.
Lidocaine Patch and Buzzy(R)
A lidocaine patch (4% topical) will be placed on the breast for at least one hour prior to radioactive tracer injection. This will be removed and a vibrating distraction device (Buzzy(R)) and ice will be placed on the breast just prior to radioactive tracer injection. Lidocaine patch: Lidocaine is a local anesthetic. Buzzy(R): Buzzy provides non-invasive pain relief by vibrating and cooling the skin which distracts from pain sensations. Ice pack: Ice cools the skin and can provide some numbing for pain.
