What does lumbar anesthesia mean in anesthesia?

Feb 10, 2022

In layman's terms, it is "half anesthesia", which is to anesthetize your lower body. Of course, there is no such term as "half anesthesia" in medicine. ("Half anesthesia" should be said to be relative to general anesthesia.) "Half anesthesia" includes two types, one is spinal anesthesia and the other is epidural anesthesia (of course, this is my own classification for them) . When the spine is numb, your lower body has no feeling. Of course, the doctor can roughly control how big a piece of numb you is. Generally, the highest point can only be numb to the chest, and it is not safe to go any higher. It is different from epidural anesthesia. Epidural anesthesia is slightly less effective. It numbs certain segments of your body. The anesthesia position can be higher, for example, it can be higher than the chest to the upper extremity, and there are fewer complications such as postoperative headaches. . There is not much difference between the two types of anesthesia. The patient is a little bit painful. As for the magnitude of the pain, it has a lot to do with the performer's manipulation and the patient's body structure. If a doctor who is skilled and considerate applies spinal anesthesia to a patient with normal body structure , the patient should suffer no more pain than the intravenous infusion. If the novice or general is anesthetized, and the patient's lumbar spine structure is abnormal (for example: lumbar spine sclerosis, bone hyperplasia, obesity, etc.), it will be troublesome. It's rather painful.
