How Post surgical pains are treated?

Our experienced pain management specialists try their level best to keep your pain symptoms suppressed. The most commonly used therapeutics are :

  1. Intravenous patient controlled Analgesia (i/v-PCA) - Patient himself regulates the administration of analgesic using a small handheld pump and programmer, directly delivers drug into the bloodstream.

  2. Patient controlled Epidural analgesia - Same like iv-PCA, but a small epidural catheter is used, which stays under the skin of your back. Less irritable than a constant intravenous channel. It's also proven to be more efficient and safer.

  3. Nerve blocks- It is used both as post operational pain management and a method of surgical anesthesia. A anaesthetic drug is introduced directly into the nerve fibres/ ganglion via injection or continuously using PCA handheld controllers. Blocking the pain conduction pathway itself, it is the most efficient process. Less drug needed, so most safe too.

  4. Oral medication- Painkillers are the traditional medicines to treat general pain symptoms. Opioids, non opioids, NSAIDs are prescribed as per particular need.

  5. Healing without medicine- Traditional therapies like Panchkarma, Acupuncture, alternative therapies such as physiotherapy are used actively to control pain. Guided meditation and mindfulness also help to cope up with the Symptoms.
