Anesthesia can lead to feelings of tiredness or fatigue after a procedure, and this effect can vary from person to person. The immediate effects of anesthesia often wear off within a few hours, but some people may feel tired or groggy for the rest of the day.
In some cases, it can take a day or more to fully recover from anesthesia, particularly if a longer or more complex procedure was performed, or if you received a combination of different anesthetic agents.
Factors like the type of anesthesia used (general vs. local), the duration of the procedure, individual health conditions, and any medications taken can influence recovery time.
If you’re concerned about persistent fatigue lasting more than a few days after the procedure, it’s a good practice to contact your healthcare provider for guidance.
