Where is the anesthetic for painless abortion injected?

Patient's question:

Where is the anesthetic for painless abortion injected? After the anesthesia wears off, will it be extremely painful?

Doctor's answer:

Anesthesia for painless abortion includes inhaled anesthesia and intravenous drip anesthesia. If intravenous drip anesthesia is used, superficial veins are usually located on the back of the hand, and then intravenous puncture is performed. Inhaled anesthesia involves inhaling liquid through the nostrils to achieve the purpose of anesthesia. After the abortion surgery is completed, patients generally regain consciousness within a short period of time, and they do not feel particularly painful upon waking up.
