A member asked:
How long does anesthesia last in your body after a toe surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
it depends on the type of anesthesia. If they did general anesthesia it typically leaves your system within 2-3 days. If they did a local injection "block", the effects can remain for up to a week. If you are asking this question because your toe or part of your foot is numb, that can be due to other causes other than anesthesia. Typically numbness can take several weeks to months to heal.
