Will anesthesia cause gas and for how long?
I've been going through dental surgeries. I believe that anesthesia causes me to experience gastrointestinal distress. On the final procedure, it was necessary to use more than usual due to several factors. It was an extraction. When the tooth is inflamed, extra is needed. Also, the root of the bottom molar was located directly next a major nerve, so my dentist was concerned and wanted to avoid my discomfort and told he gave me more than he normally would. The next day I had a very large and rather loose bowel movement. Similar things have happened to me following previous dental procedures that involved anesthesia. Two days later though, I experienced something extraordinary. My stomach became very bloated. I had noticed this bloated feeling which got progressively worse and after 2 days it felt like I had been pumped up with air. It was noticeably extended and was hard like a basketball and was very painful. After passing some gas, it was apparent I needed to go to the bathroom. I had the most severe and extreme bout of diarrhea I have ever experienced in my nearly 60 years. The volume of gas that came out of me was impressive and incredible. Nothing remotely close has ever happened to me prior to this. Oddly, there was very little odor associated with either the gas and the excessive watery stool being forcibly expelled. I was reminded of what happens when one places his thumb on a garden hose. I have to admit that while this was going on, it was rather humorous because of the very loud and forceful gas. I would have never imagined such a thing. I immediately began feeling much better as this was going on, which lasted about 30 minutes. It would come in waves. As I sat on the commode, my intestines made all sorts of noises followed by a violent, yet somewhat comical expulsions. My wife was in the bedroom and couldn't help giggling. Other than a slight headache, I felt much better afterwards. This happened around 1am and I am writing this the following morning on August 20, 2013. I still have a headache and I feel as one does following a diarrhea episode, but much improved from just prior; I cannot stress how bloated I was. This was the most alarming thing about it and another thing that I have never before experienced. I know that this sounds somewhat unbelievable, but it's 100% true.

How does using anesthesia effect the baby during delivery?
Using anesthesia during delivery can affect the baby in several ways, depending on the type and dosage used. Epidurals and spinal blocks, which are common forms of anesthesia, generally have minimal direct effects on the baby, as they primarily numb the mother's lower body. However, medications can cross the placenta and may lead to temporary changes in the baby's heart rate or respiratory function. In some cases, if the mother receives strong sedatives or general anesthesia, there may be a higher risk of respiratory depression in the newborn, necessitating close monitoring.

Is ether or gasoline more flammable?
Ether is generally more flammable than gasoline. It has a lower flash point, meaning it can ignite at a lower temperature, and its vapors can easily ignite in air.
