Telemedicine in Pain Management

Telemedicine in pain management refers to the use of technology, like video calls or mobile apps, to provide remote care for individuals experiencing pain. It allows patients to consult with healthcare professionals from the comfort of their homes, discussing symptoms, treatment options, and progress without the need for in-person visits. This approach increases accessibility, especially for those in rural areas or with mobility challenges, and can involve assessments, therapy sessions, and medication management. Telemedicine can enhance support and continuity of care while helping to address patients' pain management needs effectively.
