Description
This editorial medical illustration shows a syringe needle drawing a local anesthetic from a bottle, while in the background, you see the local anesthetic working. The close up cross section of the neural synapse shows the green glowing anesthetic binding to the sodium channels of the synapse, blocking pain signaling. The background is a field of interconnecting neurons with green glows around the synaptic junctions, indicating the action of the local anesthetic. Also shown are oligodendrocytes that wrap around multiple neurons forming each neuron's myelin sheath.
