Top 5 Patient FAQ’s
What is the difference between acute and chronic pain?
Acute pain can be mild and last just a moment, or it might be severe and last for weeks or months. Chronic pain is pain that is ongoing and usually lasts longer than six months.
What are the most common problems associated with chronic pain?
A broad variety of common conditions with different pathophysiologies are associated with chronic pain, including cancer (and its treatment), degenerative spine disease, osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, human immunodeficiency virus, migraine, diabetic neuropathy, and postherpetic neuralgia.
What is pain management?
Pain management, pain medicine, and/or pain control is a branch of medicine employing an interdisciplinary approach for easing the suffering and improving the quality of life of those living with chronic pain. (Will you manage my RX? Yes!)
What is post-surgical pain?
Postsurgical pain is defined as pain lasting more than 3 to 6 months after surgery. The pain differs in quality and location from pain experienced prior to surgery, and is usually associated with iatrogenic neuropathic pain caused by surgical injury to a major peripheral nerve.
