💉 What is Local Anesthesia?
Local anesthesia is a safe and commonly used method to numb a small, specific area of the body — allowing procedures to be done without pain, while the patient stays fully awake and aware.
🟢 It’s typically used for:
✔️ Skin or breast biopsies
✔️ Repairing a broken bone
✔️ Stitching deep cuts
✅ Local anesthesia has minimal side effects and allows for a quicker recovery compared to general anesthesia.
