Difference between Local anesthetic and Paralysis

Local anesthetic vs. Paralysis

A local anesthetic (LA) is a medication that causes reversible absence of pain sensation, although other senses are often affected, as well. Paralysis is a loss of muscle function for one or more muscles.

Similarities between Local anesthetic and Paralysis

Local anesthetic and Paralysis have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Action potential, Muscle, Nerve injury, Neurotoxin, Spinal cord, Tetrodotoxin.

Action potential

In physiology, an action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a specific axon location rapidly rises and falls: this depolarisation then causes adjacent locations to similarly depolarise.

Muscle

Muscle is a soft tissue found in most animals.

Nerve injury

Nerve injury is injury to nervous tissue.

Neurotoxin

Neurotoxins are toxins that are poisonous or destructive to nerve tissue (causing neurotoxicity).

Spinal cord

The spinal cord is a long, thin, tubular bundle of nervous tissue and support cells that extends from the medulla oblongata in the brainstem to the lumbar region of the vertebral column.
