Summary
This study tests whether EMLA numbing cream can reduce pain from Technetium 99 injections used in lymphoscintigraphy, a standard mapping procedure for skin cancers like melanoma. About 100 adults with skin cancer will receive either EMLA cream or a placebo before the injection. Researchers will compare pain scores and side effects to see if the cream helps.
