Pain Management in SCI

Pain management in spinal cord injury (SCI) involves a combination of treatments aimed at reducing persistent or severe pain caused by nerve damage or related issues. Approaches include medications like nerve pain relievers, physical therapy, and sometimes psychological support to address the emotional impact. Advanced options may involve nerve blocks or implantable devices. The goal is to improve quality of life by decreasing pain signals and managing discomfort effectively. Treatment plans are tailored to each individual, considering the specific type and source of pain, to provide the best possible relief and support recovery.
