About Anescaine 2 % Gel 30 GM

ANESCAINE 2 % GEL 30 GM is used to provide temporary local pain relief by numbing the skin and mucous membranes. It helps relieve pain, burning, and itching caused by minor cuts, burns, insect bites, piles, and anal fissures.

This jelly contains lidocaine, a local anaesthetic that works by blocking pain signals in the treated area. It is also applied before certain procedures, such as dental work, catheter insertion, or minor surgery, to reduce discomfort. Apply a thin layer to the affected area as prescribed, and avoid using it on broken or infected skin unless your doctor advises otherwise.

Since this jelly is for local use only, general lifestyle measures are not usually needed. Keeping the treated area clean and dry between applications can help it work effectively and reduce the risk of irritation.

Tell your doctor if you have any known allergy to local anaesthetics, or if you plan to use it on a large area of broken skin, before starting treatment. Stop use and consult your doctor if you notice increasing redness, swelling, or numbness that does not wear off. Use with caution during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and avoid contact with the eyes.
