Can fresh green coca paste/juice be used as a topical anesthetic?
Hi:
Let's say some fresh green coca leaves are ground into a fine paste. Can this fresh paste be used as a topical anesthetic [i.e numb the local skin and rubbing the coca paste on it]? Will it cause totally numb the skin in the area where it is applied? What effects other than numbness would result? Tingling? Also, could fresh green coca juice [obtained by crushing the leaves into a liquid and filtering out the insoluble solids -- such as cellulose] be used to mitigate the annoying affects of allergies? There are times of the year when my nasal allergies are very irritating, it feels like a little monster is tickling it. If I can spray the fresh green coca juice into my nostrils, I think this would help decrease the itching/tickling and prevent me from sneezing. Right? Thanks |
