Pain Management
What is Pain Management?
Pain Management is a medical specialty focused on the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of pain to improve a patient’s overall well-being and quality of life. It involves managing both acute and chronic pain caused by conditions such as injuries, nerve disorders, arthritis, cancer, and post-surgical recovery. This field utilizes a multidisciplinary approach, incorporating medications, physical therapy, interventional procedures, and lifestyle modifications to provide effective and personalized pain relief.
Symptoms
- Persistent or chronic pain lasting for weeks or months
- Sharp, burning, or shooting pain in affected areas
- Stiffness or reduced mobility in joints and muscles
- Tingling, numbness, or weakness, especially in nerve-related pain
- Increased pain with movement or specific activities
- Pain that disrupts sleep or daily activities
- Headaches or migraines caused by tension or nerve disorders

When to see a doctor?
Consult a doctor if you experience persistent or worsening pain that lasts more than a few weeks and affects daily activities. Seek medical attention if pain is accompanied by numbness, weakness, swelling, or unexplained weight loss. Immediate care is needed for severe pain following an injury, surgery, or a medical condition like cancer. Early intervention can help prevent complications and improve pain management outcomes.
