Are people sedated in end-of-life care?
Ideally, a patient can be pain free without being sedated. If the pain regimen is appropriate it can often give adequate pain relief without significant sedation. It all depends on the pain tolerance of the patient and the severity of the pain. READ MORE
Why do I have numbness in my face after an anesthesia?
It's possible that the duration of the local anesthetic can last longer than 12 to 18 hrs. Sometimes when the medicine is very close to the nerve there can be prolonged anesthetic effect. If the numbness does not improve slowly within 24 to 36 hrs, then you should reach out to your dentist because there might be some nerve damage or nerve compromise occurring (very rare though).
