Introduction
Yoga combines poses with deep breathing and meditation. It’s been practiced for thousands of years. But only recently have researchers begun to discover yoga’s full potential as a health intervention. In addition to improving strength, balance, and flexibility, yoga improves posture. Better posture can bring relief from many of the aches and pains linked to muscle tension. Yoga can also relieve pain and improve function in people with chronic conditions like arthritis, back pain, and fibromyalgia. How exactly it helps with pain isn’t clear. It may work by triggering the release of natural pain relieving chemicals called endorphins or by promoting a state of relaxation. Yoga comes in many styles and intensities. Music has the power to move you and transport you back in time [1]. Listening to music could also help relieve pain in part by reducing stress and helping you cope more effectively with discomfort. In one small study of people with pain caused by nerve damage, listening to classical music reduced pain scores. The longer participants listened, the more their pain receded [2]. The review of more than limited studies found that listening to music eases anxiety and pain before, during, and after surgery. Listening to music every day could help people with chronic pain conditions, like fibromyalgia or arthritis; feel more comfortable and less anxious. During a massage, a therapist uses rubbing and pressure to loosen up tight muscles and tendons and help you relax [3]. The practice could help ease aches by blocking pain signals and relieving stress. Massage generally also soothes tight muscles by improving blood flow to them. Another upside to massage is its lack of side effects. There are virtually no risks, unless you have skin rash, certain vascular disease and infection. When you’re in pain, you might be tempted to take it easy until the soreness goes away. That’s why doctors used to recommend rest for people experiencing pain. Cold therapy narrows blood vessels. This relaxes tight muscles. It comes in two forms: dry heat from a heating pad or pack, or moist heat from a warm wet washcloth or bath. Use heat for pain that’s lasting more than a few weeks [4].
Discussion
Apply heat or cold for about ten to fifteen minutes at a time, several times per day. Use caution if you have diabetes or another condition that affects your circulation or ability to feel pain. Yet newer research suggests otherwise. Studies suggest exercise is an effective way to ease pain. It may also improve physical function and quality of life. Moreover, exercise causes only a few side effects, aside from muscle soreness. Researchers replied that many of the studies on exercise for chronic pain are poor quality, but they say the overall research suggests physical activity can reduce the severity of pain. Aerobic exercise also promotes weight loss. This could take some strain off painful joints if you have osteoarthritis. Resistance training might help your body heal injured spinal discs. Physical therapy combines exercise with hands on manipulation and education [5]. Experts prefer Physical Therapy over prescription pain pills. This is because it can reduce pain without medication side effects and the potential for addiction. A physical therapist will work with you to improve your strength and flexibility, so you can move more easily. Pain Medications include over the medication drugs that you can buy without a doctor’s prescription. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are drugs that help reduce inflammation, which often helps to relieve pain. In other words, they’re anti-inflammatory drugs. NSAID can be very effective. Read on for this information as well as tips on how to use NSAID safely and effectively. NSAID work by blocking prostaglandins, which are substances that sensitize your nerve endings and enhance pain during inflammation [6]. Prostaglandins also play a role in controlling your body temperature. By inhibiting the effects of prostaglandins, NSAID help relieve your pain and bring down your fever. NSAID are especially important for managing the symptoms of arthritis, such as joint pain, inflammation, and stiffness. NSAID tend to be inexpensive and easily accessible, so they’re often the first medications prescribed to people with arthritis. The prescription drug celecoxib is often prescribed for long-term management of arthritis symptoms. This is because it’s easier on your stomach than other NSAID [7]. NSAID block the enzyme cycloxygenas from creating prostaglandin. Just because you can buy some NSAID without a prescription doesn’t mean they’re completely harmless. There are possible side effects and risks, with the most common being upset stomach, gas, and diarrhoea. NSAID are intended for occasional and short-term use. Your risk for side effects increases the longer you use them. Always talk to your healthcare provider before using NSAID, and don’t take different types of NSAID at the same time. In more serious cases, taking NSAIDs can irritate your stomach lining enough to cause an ulcer. Some ulcers can even lead to internal bleeding. You can decrease your likelihood of developing stomach issues by taking NSAID with food, milk, or an antacid. People with cardiovascular disease are at an increased risk of developing heart-related issues from taking NSAID [8]. Stop taking the NSAID immediately and seek medical attention if you experience any of the following symptoms likely ringing in your ears, blurry vision, rash, hives, and itching, fluid retention, blood in your urine or stools and vomiting and blood in your vomit. NSAID can interact with other medications. Some drugs become less effective when they interact with NSAID. Two examples are blood pressure medications and low dose aspirin. Other drug combinations can cause serious side effects, too. NSAID can actually enhance the effect of warfarin, a medication used to prevent or treat blood clots. The combination can lead to excessive bleeding. Cyclosporine is used to treat arthritis or ulcerative colitis. It’s also prescribed to people who’ve had an organ transplant. Taking it with an NSAID can lead to kidney damage. Combining NSAID with the mood-stabilizing drug lithium can lead to a dangerous build-up of lithium in your body [9]. Taking NSAID with low-dose aspirin can increase the risk of developing stomach ulcers. Bleeding within the digestive system may also be a problem if you take NSAID with selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors. It’s usually not a problem to take NSAID if you also take diuretics. However, your healthcare provider should monitor you for high blood pressure and kidney damage while you take them both [10]. Ibuprofen is the most commonly used NSAID in children. It’s also the only one approved for use in children as young as 3 months old. Naproxen can be given to children over the age of 12 years old. Chronic pain is a major health issue. It’s one of the most common reasons why adults see a doctor in the United States, and up to forty cent of Americans live with chronic pain. Work with your doctor to find the best one for you. There’s also a range of alternative therapies available to ease chronic pain. Interventions, like exercise, massage, and yoga, can improve quality of life without causing harmful side effects in the process. A pain scale is a tool that doctors use to help assess a person’s pain. A person usually self-reports their pain using a specially designed scale, sometimes with the help of a doctor, parent, or guardian. Pain scales may be used during admission to a hospital, during a doctor visit, during physical activity, or after surgery. Doctors use the pain scale to better understand certain aspects of a person’s pain. Some of these aspects are pain duration, severity, and type. For children, pain scales using images of faces are commonly used. A child may be presented with the images of eight different faces with various expressions. The child chooses the face that they feel is most consistent with their current pain level. Initial pain assessment tool, designed for use during an initial evaluation. It helps doctor get information from the person about the characteristics of their pain, the way the person expresses their pain, and how the pain is affecting the person’s everyday life. This pain scale includes the use of a paper diagram. It shows a body where people can mark the location of their pain, as well as a scale to rate pain intensity and a space for more comments. Brief pain inventory tool, fast and simple for people to use to help measure pain intensity and associated disability. It includes a series of questions addressing aspects of pain felt over the previous 24 hours. MPQ, most widely used multidimensional pain scale exists in questionnaire form, and assesses a person’s pain based on the words they use to describe their pain. Pain scales can be useful in assessing a person’s acute, or sudden, pain. However, these tools can sometimes oversimplify the pain assessment process. Pain can be multidimensional. It can have different characteristics and affect different parts of a person’s life. Because of this, multidimensional pain scales are among the most useful and effective when used to assess complex or chronic pain.
Conclusion
Categorical pain scale, a simple way to rate their pain intensity using a verbal or visual descriptor of their pain. Visual pain scale shows a centimetre line printed on a piece of paper, with anchors at either end. At one end is zero pain, and at the other end are pain as bad as it could be or else the worst imaginable pain. Numerical pain intensity levels, assessed upon initial treatment, or periodically after treatment.
