What is pain management?

Pain is defined as an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with potential tissue damage. Pain may arise from any organ system in the body but usually originates from the nervous system.

It is important to remember that not everyone experiences pain the same way.

Everyone suffers from occasional aches and pains, however, chronic pain affects many people. Chronic pain is defined as pain lasting longer than 3 months. People suffering from chronic pain experience pain 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Many patients suffer from back pain, neck pain, headaches, arthritis, fibromyalgia, migraines, carpal tunnel syndrome, and sports injuries.

Pain management treatment

Treatment options include medication, physical therapies, complementary medicine, lifestyle changes, education, and self-help strategies. Medication can be used alone or in combination with other forms of treatment. The different types of treatment options available at Kondapur’s Best Pain Management Hospital are as follows-

Acupuncture is one of the oldest methods of treating pain and is believed to work by stimulating the release of endorphins, natural chemicals produced in the brain that reduce pain. Acupuncture needles are inserted into specific points along the body known as meridians. These points correspond to organs and systems in the body and stimulate them to produce healing effects.

Chiropractic care is another form of non-invasive treatment. Chiropractors manipulate joints to relieve pressure on nerves causing pain. They believe that spinal misalignment causes tension on the spine and surrounding structures resulting in muscle spasms, joint inflammation and neurological symptoms.

Physiotherapists treat musculoskeletal disorders using manual manipulation, exercise and electrotherapy. Manual manipulation uses hands, fingers, elbows and knees to move joints and soft tissues. Exercise includes stretching and strengthening exercises. Electrotherapy uses electrical stimulation to improve circulation and relax muscles.

Massage therapists use touch to promote relaxation and ease muscular tension. Massages are performed manually or with mechanical devices.

Counseling helps people cope with emotional distress and learn new ways of coping with difficult situations. Counsellors use various approaches to reach clients including cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, mindfulness, and art therapy.

Self-help strategies involve learning to manage pain better and taking control of your life. Self-management programs teach patients to recognize warning signs of pain flares and taking action before they become severe. Patients are encouraged to set goals and create plans for managing pain.
