Uhm. A bit slow today. The joke is that he should have asked if they wanted an anesthetic before doing all the painful stuff, not after, right?

I think it's more that the doctor was struggling to insert it, so he offer the local anesthetic only to make his job easier.

Yeah. For some reason, despite all the women telling them it hurts, doctors typically believed the sales critters when they said the procedure is completely painless.
