Treatments for Chronic Pain
Treatment for Chronic Pain
Chronic pain involves all aspects of a person's life; therefore, the most effective treatment includes not only relief of symptoms, but also other types of support. A multidisciplinary approach to pain management can often provide the needed interventions to help manage the pain. Pain management programs are usually conducted on an outpatient basis. Many skilled professionals are part of the pain management rehabilitation team, including any/all of the following:
- Neurologists/neurosurgeons
- Orthopaedists/orthopaedic surgeons
- Anesthesiologists
- Oncologists
- Physiatrists
- Nurses
- Physical therapists
- Occupational therapists
- Psychologists/psychiatrists
- Social workers
- Case managers
- Vocational counselors
Special pain programs are located in many hospitals, rehabilitation facilities, and pain clinics.
