Lidocaine

Lidocaine is a local anesthetic used to numb skin or mucous membranes and reduce pain or discomfort in a specific area. It works by blocking nerve signals so pain sensations are less likely to reach the brain.

It is used for conditions such as minor skin irritation, painful procedures, and premature ejaculation in some topical spray or jelly forms. Use only as directed, avoid applying to broken or irritated skin unless prescribed, and seek medical advice if numbness spreads or side effects occur.
