  2. Pain management, pain medicine, pain control or algiatry, is a branch of medicine that uses an interdisciplinary approach for easing the suffering and improving the quality of life of those living with chronic pain.

  4. Methods Of Pain Managment Surgeons and their patients are increasingly using alternative methods, such as relaxation techniques and acupuncture, to supplement conventional medicine. A combined approach to pain management is often the best option because it allows the surgeon to tailor pain control methods to each individual patient.

  5. Trans cutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) In transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) a special device transmits low-level electrical charges into the area of the body that is in pain. A TENS system consists of a small, battery-powered machine connected by wires to a pair of electrodes. The two electrodes are connected to your skin near the source of pain or at a pressure point.

  6. Continuous Passive Motion (CPM) Continuous passive motion (CPM) is a technique in which your joint is moved constantly in a mechanical splint to prevent stiffness and increase range of motion. A CPM machine moves your joint for you without requiring you to exert any effort. Medical evidence indicates that in many cases immobilization increases pain after surgery. As a result, early motion has been applied to many orthopaedic problems.

  7. Acupuncture Acupuncture points tend to be areas of your skin that contain relatively large amounts of intersecting nerve endings that feed into your muscles or bones. Some scientists believe that these “acupoints” possess special electrical characteristics that can be manipulated using painless hair-thin needles.

  8. Psychological Method Psychological Methods can be effective as an additional treatment for pain control. This methods reduce or eliminate the need of medicine. Some of oldest and best psychological methods include Relaxation Techniques, Guided Imagery, Medical Hypnosis.
