Answers:
I didnt find "Lignocaine"

But I found this :

http://www.webmd.com/drugs/drug-93254-Lidocaine+HCl+Injection.aspx?drugid=93254&drugname=Lidocaine+HCl+Injection

You can try looking for Lignocaine on this site if this is not what you are looking for :)

Good luck ! Hope you feel better and dont feel any pain for long lol

Other Answers:
It is only a temporary measure.The underlying reason for your parasthesia (tinging, etc) needs to be established, and treated if possible.The lignocaine infusion is a temporary symptom control and not a cure. There are many neuropathic conditions that can cause this damage to your nerve endings as well as non neuropathic..i.e diabetes. Hope this helps =)
