Drugs with this ability are known as analgesics.Condition of not experiencing any pain sensation.Reduced sensibility to pain, without loss of consciousness and without the sense of touch necessarily being affected. The condition may arise accidentally, if nerves are diseased or damaged, or be induced deliberately by the use of painkilling drugs. Strictly speaking, local 'anesthesia should be called local analgesia.Absence of a normal sense of pain.The condition of experiencing an absence of pain, despite the individual maintaining complete awareness.Analgesia refers to the loss of or decrease in pain sensation. It should be noted that analgesia differs from anesthesia, which involves the complete loss of all sensations, as analgesia preserves sensitivity to touch. The induction of analgesia can be achieved through the administration of analgesic drugs.Alleviation of pain without causing a loss of consciousness.</description></oembed>
