PAIN CLINIC
“Life would have been so much easier if there were no pain”
Everyone experiences a painful condition at some point in their lifetime. But when it comes to suffering, nothing could be as agonizing as living with the painful condition itself. We, at PSRI Centre for Interventional Pain Management , New Delhi, look forward to acknowledge and help such patients and plan a comprehensive treatment plan for a long lasting pain relief and psycho social rehabilitation..
Concept of Pain Clinic.
A chronic painful condition has many repercussions on physical and mental health of a patient leading to work absenteeism, depression, loss of productivity, disability etc , deteriorating the quality of life further. Understanding and acknowledging Pain as a
bio-psycho-social disorder is a recent development and led to pain management and pain medicine as a dedicated specialization to address the same. In the absence of proper education among health care professionals and lack of awareness among the public in India, Pain medicine faces a huge challenge to stop the misuse of painkillers resulting in high incidence of complications like gastritis, kidney failure, and bone marrow depression etc , and offer effective long term pain relief through safe interventions and medications.
Pain Syndromes We Treat
Interventional Procedures We Do
Interventional pain procedures scores over both medicine and surgery, as they do not have side effects like medicines. Surgeries for pain, have now limited indications, usually as a last resort. The interventional pain procedures produce immediate pain relief, can be performed with ease by pain physicians and adequate duration of pain relief obtained; minimum hospital stay is required and procedure can be repeated
