Anesthesiologist Questions Local Anesthesia

Can my son experience any side effects with local anesthesia?

My son just had surgery with only local anesthesia, and now he's feeling nauseous. Could this be from the anesthesia? It's only been a few days after the procedure.

It could be from his surgery too.
Not likely. Local anesthetics usually cannot be detected in our blood after a day or two in significant amounts.
