There are three types of anesthesia: local, regional, and general. Local anesthesia is used to numb a small area of the body, regional anesthesia is used to numb a large area of the body such as an arm or leg, and general anesthesia affects the entire body.
The purpose of local anesthesia is to numb the immediate area of the body for either surgery or some other procedure that is likely to cause pain. Many different local anesthetics are available.
