Pain management in orthopedics
Pain management in orthopedics is a critical aspect of patient care, focusing on alleviating discomfort associated with musculoskeletal injuries and conditions. It employs a multimodal approach, combining pharmacological treatments, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), opioids, and adjunctive medications, with non-pharmacological interventions like physical therapy, acupuncture, and cognitive-behavioral strategies.
