Even though allergic reactions to local anesthesia are rare and even more so among elderly people, the present case demonstrates that a medication can be tolerated for a significant period of time before causing an accident. This illustrative case details the true nature of complications observed following local anesthesia and suggests a way of approaching the same to arrive at a definitive diagnosis. This method consists of a rigorous analysis of the clinical manifestations and allergologic testing. Local anesthesia is indispensable for both the dentist and the patient and anyone with allergies is at risk at being allergic to general anesthesia as well.
尽管局部麻醉的过敏反应很少见，在老年人中更是如此，但本病例表明，一种药物在引发事故之前可能在很长一段时间内都能被耐受。这个典型病例详细说明了局部麻醉后观察到的并发症的真实性质，并提出了一种处理方法以得出明确诊断。这种方法包括对临床表现进行严格分析和进行变应性检测。局部麻醉对牙医和患者来说都是必不可少的，而且任何过敏的人也有对全身麻醉过敏的风险。
