Under the definition of wheal, the round, elevated area of skin must be different in appearance from the surrounding skin (like in hives).  So, when this surgeon has decided to do a suprapubic catheter on this gentleman who had a misplaced Foley, he elevated a "wheal" of skin (he spelled w-h-e-a-l).  I'm not sure about that.  Opinions?

"I injected with 4-0 with lidocaine" or "I injected with 40-0 with lidocaine, " or "I injected with 40 with lidocaine."  Which one sounds right?  Any clues?

5 mL of 1% lidocaine WERE injected...
Subject: 5 mL of 1% lidocaine WERE injected...

In response to Mark's question, "5 cc of 1% lidocaine was or were injected", the text from the grammar website below, from the topic, "Subject-Verb Agreement", explains why "WERE" was the right word there.  Per that text, the "5 mL" (but not the "lidocaine") becomes the Subject, and the Verb should be in plural.
