Chronic Pain

Chronic Pain

Your nervous system uses pain as a warning that something might be off. It is an uncomfortable sensation, like a burn, tingle, prick, or aching. Acute pain and chronic pain are the two categories of pain. Acute pain alerts you to potential injuries or problems that require attention. In contrast, chronic pain might last for several weeks, months, or even years at a time.

Causes

An injury or infection might have been the initial reason. An enduring cause of discomfort, such cancer or arthritis, might exist. Sometimes the cause is unclear. Chronic pain may worsen due to psychological and environmental reasons.

SYMPTOMS

A variety of conditions can lead to chronic discomfort. Therefore, chronic pain can show up in a variety of ways.

TREATMENTS

The type of arthritis being treated determines the drugs that are utilized. Typical drugs for arthritis include:

Acetaminophen.

NSAIDs.
COX-2 inhibitors.
Antidepressants.
Opioids.

Therapy based on cognitive behavior (CBT). CBT helps patients function better by addressing psychosocial factors that contribute to pain, such as worry, discomfort, fear, and avoidance. Through behavioral approaches, CBT teaches patients how to change the circumstances and thought patterns that exacerbate their suffering. Active patient engagement, relaxation training, support for coping mechanisms, and the use of support groups, professional counseling, or other self-help programs are all features of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).

Exercise therapy (such as yoga, walking, swimming, free weights, etc.) offers the patient the chance to address the impact of pain in their life and promotes active patient engagement in the care plan. Exercise therapy can help with issues like weakness, posture, and repetitive motions that cause pain in the musculoskeletal system.

If conservative treatments are ineffective,  your Doctor may recommend an epidural or intraarticular glucocorticoid injection.
