Correct! Anesthetics are typically used to block pain.
Anesthetics work by numbing or numbing the affected area, reducing or completely blocking the sensation of pain. They can be applied topically as creams or sprays or injected directly into the affected area. There are different types of anesthetics, such as local anesthetics (numbing a specific area), regional anesthetics (numbing larger areas or specific nerve pathways), and general anesthetics (causing loss of consciousness).
Other options listed in the question are antipruritics, which are used to relieve itching; anticogulants, which are used to prevent blood clotting; and analgesics, which are pain relievers. While all of these may have their uses in different scenarios, when it comes specifically to blocking pain, anesthetics are the most appropriate choice.
