How did people get surgeries done before anesthesia was invented? How were they able to stay still and not move around during the procedures?
There’s no way people could just grit their teeth and feel being cut, could they? The pain alone had to make people act out.

They held your ass down. Source: Had to have a chest tube placed for a chest wound / collapsed lung while in the field. Had several guys hold me down. It was unpleasant. They had an IV going and hit me with some Vercet (spelling?) as I recall, and some other shots I think, but the memories are hazy. I definitely remember being held down by a lot of dudes. One held my head still, one across my legs, one on each arm, one holding torso steady while last one cut and tubed me. After the tube was placed I started coughing and blacked out.
