Arthritis & Pain Management
Arthritis is a common pain disease, including inflammation of the joints. In this disease, your bones and joints become painful to move. Swelling and stiffness are common manifestations of Arthritis.
Pain management is essential in arthritis. Medications and lifestyle changes are necessary. In advanced stages, surgery is necessary to bring back the mobility or correct the deformity.
Surgeons mostly perform this surgery on shoulders, hips and knees. These are common areas where arthritis affects you the most. They use anaesthesia during the surgical procedure and a combination of painkillers and nerve blocks in the post operative period to control the pain. Staged rehabilitation helps the patient to recover post-surgery.
