The health care practitioner should respond by saying, the medicine contains benzocaine to stop the pain.
It is common practice to administer benzocaine to patients suffering from sunburn or other mild burns, poison ivy, insect bites or stings, poison oak, or poison sumac, minor cuts or scratches, and other disorders that cause pain and irritation.
Benzocaine is a topical local anaesthetic, which is a class of medication that belongs to a larger group. The nerve endings inside the skin become less sensitive as a result. This medicine does not put a patient to sleep in the same way that general anaesthetics do when they are administered during surgery.
