Relief of pain & suffering is central to the practice of anaesthesia. The word anaesthesia comes from two Greek words: "an" meaning "without" and "aesthesis" meaning "sensation". Dr Dilip Kapur is an anaesthetist, pain medicine specialist & @anzca-fpm.bsky.social dean. #insafehands bit.ly/42lfpB8

Little Yogi had to be extracted from a brick he'd got his head stuck in. The brilliant team at Clyde Vet Group used a combination of muscle relaxant and lubricant to ease him back out safely.

Great work from the vet team! 👏 #InSafeHands
