  1. local anaesthesia

    Local anaesthesia is a type of anaesthesia that numbs a specific area or part of the body to prevent pain or discomfort during medical procedures. It does not cause unconsciousness or loss of overall sensation, but instead blocks nerve impulses in the localized area where it is applied or injected. This allows the patient to stay awake and aware, but free from pain in the treated part of the body.
