Yes, you can. But all with moderation.

No. Because often local anesthetic is supplemented with intravenous anesthetic which contraindicate alcohol. Moreover you can be “numb” and alcohol result in disinhibition and poor judgement.

If you drink alcohol it should be in moderation, local anesthesia does not affect this. Drink responsibly my friend.
