That topical spray we mentioned last week—the one designed to help premature ejaculators—turns out to just be a mixture of lidocaine and prilocaine. Lidocaine is commonly used by dentists to numb the mouth, and prilocaine is used to numb skin before inserting a needle. But beyond that, Consumer Reports points out that side effects reported by the men and their partners in the study included a "rash on their penis" or "a burning sensation in their vagina."
Well, let’s see; I just happen to have a tube of Orajel right here. Let’s have a look at the label, shall we? Uh huh, benzocaine. Which is just one of many “caine” type anesthetic. Lidocaine is stronger, but it’s basically the same sort of thing. Also, back in the day there was a thing about how putting cocaine on one’s wang was suppose to make one last longer.
Heaven’s sake people, quite trying to turbo-charge your fun bits.
