A person's quality of life can be greatly impacted by the complex and subjective experience of pain. Pain may be crippling and have an impact on one's physical, emotional, and mental health, whether it is acute or chronic. The goal of pain management, which is a multidisciplinary approach, is to improve function, lessen pain, and improve the general quality of life for people with various forms of pain.
Establishing a customized treatment plan and determining the underlying causes of pain are two of the main objectives of pain management. This could entail medical examinations, diagnostic testing, and a detailed review of the patient's past medical records. Understanding the underlying causes of pain allows medical professionals to more effectively target their treatments and adjust treatment plans as necessary.
Charak Hospital Pain Center in Lucknow provides patients with pain treatment therapies to help them ease chronic pain.
There are two types of pain management
1. Non-interventional pain management
2. Interventional pain management
What we do Interventional Pain Management
Interventional pain management is a specialized branch of medicine that focuses on using minimally invasive procedures and techniques to diagnose and treat chronic pain conditions.
Interventional pain management focuses on using minimally invasive procedures such as injections, nerve blocks, and radiofrequency ablation to target and treat the source of pain. This approach differs from other pain management methods, such as medication or physical therapy, which primarily focus on symptom relief without directly addressing the underlying cause of pain.
Interventional pain management techniques can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including chronic back pain, neck pain, joint pain, neuropathic pain, cancer pain, and pain related to musculoskeletal disorders or injuries.
Some common interventional pain management procedures include epidural steroid injections, nerve blocks, facet joint injections, radiofrequency ablation, spinal cord stimulation, intrathecal drug delivery, and joint injections. These procedures are tailored to address specific sources of pain and provide relief for individuals suffering from chronic pain conditions.
Interventional pain management has been shown to be effective in relieving chronic pain for many patients. However, the effectiveness of the treatment can vary depending on factors such as the type and severity of the pain, the patient's overall health and medical history, and the specific interventional techniques used. It's important for patients to work with a qualified pain management specialist who can help determine the most appropriate treatment plan for their individual needs.
