Pain Management
Pain management is an aspect of medicine focused on reducing or reversing the effects of pain to improve a patient’s quality of life. As a medical specialty, pain management can take many forms, and is often a collaborative effort between many medical specialists and a patient’s primary medical care provider.
Many kinds of pain management strategies may be recommended to a patient, depending on the type, severity, and complexity of the pain experienced including pharmacological therapy, interventional therapy, and alternative therapy.
