Pain Management
Pain management includes, not only medication, but also a complete plan of relaxation, exercise and behavioral change. Sometimes certain medications, nerve blocks or physical therapy can provide results, but, in most cases a compressive, multiple-part approach to ending chronic pain is required. Managing pain is not about making the pain disappear, it is about keeping pain tolerable.
