Does tonsillectomy use local anesthesia pain? (Surgical experience)

General anesthesia is the best and safest, and the risk will not be greater than local anesthesia. The most important thing is that patients feel comfortable, but the cost is much higher and they need to be hospitalized.

Tonsillectomy is actually very fast, and local anesthesia can definitely be done.

Local anesthesia will certainly do some harm to the patient, but this is not the main thing. The main thing is to let the doctor operate inside with his mouth open, which will be very uncomfortable and scary.

But adults basically do it under local anesthesia. It's also a matter of concept. There is basically no concept of humanization in China. If you feel a little uncomfortable, you can bear it. Why spend a lot of money on general anesthesia? Foreign medical industry pays attention to the requirements of humanization. As long as the patient requests, minor operations such as tooth extraction are general anesthesia.

But now that the conditions are good, we begin to pay attention to comfortable medical care. Painless gastroscopy, colonoscopy and painless abortion are actually general anesthesia. The concept has also improved.
