Pain is a natural evolutionary response to injury. It gives us an idea of the localization, prevalence, and nature of the injury, as well as helps us adapt behavior to help us recover faster and avoid re-injury.
In some cases, pain is transformed from a natural process into a separate disease, suffering from pain. The nature of the pain is changing, and it no longer has a clear localization, a clear cause of its formation, and preservation. Ambiguity causes anxiety in patients, sleep disorders, depression, decreased performance and physical activity, which leads to changes in joints and muscles and causes secondary pain. Existing diseases worsen and new ones appear, previously occurring unnoticed.
All this requires the help not of a single specialist, but of a team of doctors who work in one team and practice a multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis and treatment. Doctors develop a well-coordinated and effective treatment plan individually for each patient. This treatment allows you to influence all areas of the patient's life that have been changed by pain in order to help the patient regain the joy of life.
Doctors of the pain treatment clinic
The team of specialists at the Pain Treatment Clinic consists of experienced doctors who have completed internships in Pain management in clinics in Israel, America, and Europe. In diagnosis and treatment, doctors use protocols from leading European clinics. Treatment tactics are determined individually after determining the causes and mechanisms of pain. It depends on how, when, and how to treat pain for its relief.
Among the doctors:
neurologists
rheumatologists
anesthesiologists
neurosurgeons
orthopedic traumatologists
psychotherapists
rehabilitation specialists
After the patient's first meeting with the doctor of the Pain Treatment Clinic, the doctor gives recommendations on pain relief. After a thorough history collection and examination, analysis of X-ray and functional examination data, the doctor draws up a detailed treatment plan.
The
comprehensive program includes consultation with a doctor at a Pain treatment clinic, laboratory tests, and radiography of the spine. According to the results of the primary diagnosis, if necessary, having gathered a medical consultation, the doctors of the Pain Treatment Clinic draw up an individual treatment plan for the patient.
How to manage pain
Pain management is a difficult task, which is successfully handled at the EMC by a team of experts from various specialties.
It is believed that pain is the prerogative of older people, but this is not the case. Young people often suffer from acute and chronic pain. This is a common problem, and the probability of its occurrence during life is 100%.
The pain has a different form, nature, and localization.
Back pain
Back pain is most common. Recent studies have shown that in most cases there is no connection between the presence of degenerative changes in the spine (protrusions and hernias) and the presence of pain.
Joint pain
Joint pain is more common in elderly patients, but it also occurs in young patients.Osteoarthritis and degenerative changes on MRI or radiography are often not an explanation for pain, as many people who have no pain have such changes.For the treatment of this type of pain, proper assessment of such patients is important - a comparison of clinical manifestations and orthopedic testing with the picture on X-rays and MRI.
Musculoskeletal pain
Currently, physiotherapy specialists play an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal pain, since very often such pain does not have a medical solution and does not require surgical intervention.
Neck pain
Neck pain, which is largely related to a sedentary lifestyle, is also highly common. One of the manifestations of neck pain is cervicogenic (cervical)a headache.In addition to cervical headache, which is also called tension headache, migraine and cluster headache are also common, which require a separate approach to diagnosis and treatment.
Facial pain
Facial pain is a difficult task that requires distinguishing trigeminal neuropathies from central sensitization syndrome, when pain perception is disrupted and the nervous system issues a false fire alarm.
Pelvic and abdominal pain
Chronic pelvic and abdominal pain, when all possible causes are excluded, may also be associated with central sensitization syndrome, a false fire alarm in the nervous system. Such pains can bother the patient for a long time and even create a false picture of the need for surgical intervention.
All types of pain require a comprehensive approach to diagnosis and treatment. Only the collaboration of a multidisciplinary team of specialists with a patient will give the most effective result and improve the quality of life.
