Local anesthesia is given directly over the area where you will have your procedure. Your healthcare provider may also give you conscious sedation or deep sedation to help you sleep during your procedure. You may feel burning for a few seconds after you get the local anesthesia. This is temporary. What are the risks of local anesthesia? You may have a severe reaction to the anesthesia. Even with local anesthesia, you may feel some pain.
