Default Re: So..here's a question to ponder...

I'm not a medical expert so I could be totally off, but I have two guesses. One, sucking on it applies pressure which reduces pain. Two, sometimes air on a cut makes it sting so getting it wet with saliva reduces the sting.

I did not know the mouth has the most bacteria. Your saliva is full of digestive juices, I would think they kill they bacteria. But I have no idea.
