pain relief practices

Pain relief practices involve various methods to reduce discomfort, aiming to improve quality of life. These include medications like over-the-counter pain relievers (e.g., acetaminophen, NSAIDs), prescribed drugs, and advanced options like nerve blocks. Non-drug approaches include physical therapy, acupuncture, and relaxation techniques that can help the body manage pain better. Psychological strategies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy can address emotional aspects of chronic pain. Combining these approaches tailored to individual needs helps manage pain effectively, allowing for better function and comfort.
