It will be painful when the anesthesia is injected, but it will not hurt much after the anesthesia is injected.
From this perspective, acupuncture anesthesia in traditional Chinese medicine should be used first.
Does acupuncture and numbness hurt?
Laymen may worry about the pain of acupuncture, but experts should worry about the anesthesia effect mentioned earlier.
One of the biggest reasons why acupuncture anesthesia cannot compare to modern Western medicine anesthesiology is that acupuncture anesthesia can only relieve pain and it is difficult to achieve complete muscle relaxation. It cannot make the patient feel that the internal organs are being pulled by the surgical instruments during the operation, nor can it make the patient lose consciousness in the late stage so that the patient can feel that the doctor is operating on him during the operation and then develop psychological disorders. These are 100% medical accidents in Western medicine anesthesiology.
Even when used for local analgesia, acupuncture anesthesia is not like Western medical anesthesiology. For example, Chinese medicine, which was criticized by Dr. Fu for not having quantitative indicators, is difficult to train doctors using the Western medical education method of mass production, resulting in huge individual technical deviations between Chinese medicine acupuncturists and doctors in other categories.
This huge deviation is not only reflected between individuals, but as Professor Wang himself admits, his prescription may work wonders for one patient, but it is hard to say for another.
Some people say that the above is the strategy of using one thousand methods for one thousand people, which is what traditional Chinese medicine is very proud of, but in fact it tests the talent of Chinese medicine doctors too much.
Precisely because there are no quantitative indicators that can be summarized, it is difficult for Chinese doctors to summarize their own successful experiences and replicate them on other patients.

what to do?
You can only rely on talent.
Gifted Chinese medicine doctors, such as the famous doctors in history, are accurate in treating any disease. It is impossible for future generations to completely replicate the treatment plans they have summarized for each individual patient.
Those who have no talent can only rely on luck.
No wonder the Chinese medical school has so much to discuss about whether it can be used effectively or not. It's like a surgeon who easily makes the mistake of having high expectations but low skills.
The theories all make sense, but the practical applications are mostly a mess.
The needle in acupuncture is called the surgical scalpel of traditional Chinese medicine. Acupuncturists must have technical capabilities that can compete with Western medicine surgeons, or more accurately, technical talent.
For the above reasons, acupuncture anesthesia generally requires anesthetic drugs for major surgeries. Minor surgeries can sometimes be treated with water injections.
Water injection is a product of modern Chinese medicine. Its theory is meridian theory, combined with modern medical drugs (Western medicine or Chinese patent medicine injection), so another name for water injection is called acupoint injection.
Like acupuncture anesthesia, it is usually combined with drugs such as pethidine, which are diluted with saline and then injected into designated acupuncture points.
There are four injection methods in Western medicine: intradermal injection, subcutaneous injection, intramuscular injection, and intravenous injection. If we use the above four injection methods to explain the specific anatomical location of acupoint injection, it should be equivalent to the subcutaneous injection site in Western medicine.
With this explanation, you can understand why sometimes you see nurses rather than doctors giving injections in traditional Chinese medicine hospitals. After all, it is nurses who do the injections in hospitals on a daily basis and have more practical experience.
Once the injection site is wrong, the drug that should not enter other parts of the human body will be injected, and the consequences can be imagined.
This is not a Chinese hospital. The people on standby are nurses in the critical care unit of a Western hospital.
Nurses also have their own specialties. Why let nurses from Western hospitals give water injections?
The nurse at the scene kept shaking her head: I don’t know where the acupuncture points are.
