How long does anesthesia stay in the blood?
It depends on the actual agent used, but most anesthesitics will have breakdown products that can be active for a few hours. Paul Hubbell phubbell@bellsouth.net READ MORE
My son was given anesthesia before his CT scan and is now drowsy. Is this normal?
Yes the anesthesia was probably given orally and can last from 2 to 6 or even 8 hours. Since there is a lung infection and possible weakness from illness, your child will have a more pronounced effect from sedation, but it will wear off. If not breathing at least 14 times a minute, go to the ER. READ MORE
What treatment should I get for nerve root compression?
You need an MRI and a visit to an Interventional Pain doctor or a spine surgeon. There are oral medications, physical therapy and targeted injections that may help you, depending on the cause of your pain. Surgery is usually a last resort, but may be necessary if more conservative measures do not help to reduce the pain and increase function. Paul Hubbell READ MORE
