Steve, I've got one of these (apologies for thread-jack) and I'm putting off having it sorted, it's only small, not causing any problems atm... What's it feel like when they start poking around... I've had a bad experience with local anaesthetic

Don't put it off mate, i put mine off for a few weeks! Wish i never did! At first i was able to push it back in myself and then watchit come out after about 10 seconds or so, then it was permanently out, then it started to hurt and i was lucky enough to have private health care with my company so got it sorted near enough straight away. Get it looked at asap. As for anasthetic, i have bad experience with them aswell, always sick after. But its got to be done!
