Overview

Pain management is a medical specialty focused on the diagnosis, assessment, and treatment of various types of pain. Its primary goal is to alleviate or manage pain to improve quality of life and promote functional abilities.

Pain can be classified into acute or chronic categories. Acute pain typically occurs suddenly due to injury, surgery, or illness and resolves as the underlying cause heals. Chronic pain persists for longer durations (typically more than three months) and may result from conditions such as arthritis, neuropathy, fibromyalgia, or back/spine problems.

Pain management often involves a multidisciplinary team comprising physicians specializing in anaesthesiology, neurology, orthopaedics, physiatry, along with physical therapists, psychologists/psychiatrists, pharmacists—working together to provide comprehensive care tailored to individual patients' needs.
