Why is it we can use anesthesia to block out pain receptors, but we don’t use a form of anesthesia to help with after work out pain?

Well, you could, if you wanted to.
You’d need a doctor to not accidentally die. And it would demolish your sleep cycle. And the side effects would be bad enough to ruin every workout right after you did it. But yeah, you COULD do it.
EDIT: By the way, if you’re sore for days and days after your workout, then you’re going too hard. You don’t get big at the gym, you get big in your bed sleeping and healing. The gym is where you break things down. So if you aren’t healing well, *then you aren’t growing*, period. When I trained guys, the first thing I did was work on their diet and sleep cycles, as improving those alone will get most gym rats better results without even touching their current workouts.
