Best Answer

an anesthetic is a drug that numbs your sensation and sometimes dampens your alertness. There are many types of anesthetic including topical (benzocaine cream for example), local (a novacaine injection at the dentist for example) and general (which is what they would use to "knock you out" for a major surgery)
