What is Pain Management?

With pain management, you can regain your strength and continue to live life to the fullest. However, if you neglect seeking out and utilizing the proper treatment, daily tasks and activities that once were so simple will become more demanding over time.

Pain management uses various treatments and procedures depending on your injury, level of pain, and how long the pain has been occurring. You may be able to adequately manage your pain with some medication, or you may need to start having regular massage therapy sessions or use a heating pad.

Whatever your situation may be, a doctor will work with you to create the best plan to help you not only decrease or eliminate the pain but cope with the difficulties and move towards a life without relying on medications.


What Pain Can Be Managed

There are many types of pain that can be treated using orthopedic pain management, as orthopedics is related to anything in the musculoskeletal system, whether an injury or disease. Headaches and neck pain, arthritis and joint pain, and spinal cord pain are common issues in people who seek out pain management treatment.

  • Neck Injuries: Whether you have sprains, strains, whiplash, or even a slipped disc, these are all common injuries. They can be caused by a number of different things but are often the result of an accident or slipping and falling on a hard surface.
  • Back Pain: Like neck injuries, back pain is often caused by an accident or injury and can result in sprains and strains. However, our backs are extremely sensitive, and severe back pain can seemingly come from nowhere due to being tired and worn out as well.
  • Foot & Ankle Injuries: General sprains and other accidents are the usual culprits when it comes to feet and ankle injuries, but medical conditions like arthritis and tendonitis could also be the cause.

How Pain Management Works

Pain management takes into account that each individual injury is unique; therefore, the type of therapy needed will have to cater to what kind of pain is occurring, how severe the pain is, and the type of injury.

You will first meet with a specialist to discuss these variables, and then they will establish a specialized plan just for you and your needs. By taking all these things into account, a pain management specialist can help get you up and moving again in no time.
