Pediatric Chronic Pain Management
Pediatric chronic pain management involves addressing persistent pain in children and adolescents that lasts for months or longer. This approach includes a combination of medications, physical therapy, psychological support, and lifestyle changes tailored to the child's needs. The goal is to help alleviate pain, improve daily functioning, and enhance quality of life. It requires a team of healthcare providers to create a comprehensive plan that may also involve families, helping children cope with their pain emotionally and physically. Effective management fosters resilience and supports overall well-being during a challenging time.
