Conventional Treatment for  Pain Relief

The Conventional treatment depends on whether the pain is acute or chronic as well as the location of the pain. In addition, doctors take into account the cause and severity of the pain, aggravating and relieving conditions and any accompanying symptoms such as depression and sleep disorders.

There are a number of treatments that are often used concomitantly for pain relief.

Medications:
There are different categories of pain killers utilized based on the type, severity, location of the pain, and the patient’s response.

Non-opoids –These drugs include: NSAIDs –Non Steroid Anti-Inflammatory medications (Iburofen/Advil/Motrin®, Naproxen/Alleve/Naprosyn®), acetaminophen and aspirin.
Opioids –Prescription narcotics (Morphine, Codeine, Oxycodone)
