Pain Management is the management of long term/chronic pain conditions. This often requires imaging, labs, and the use of supportive therapies in addition to medication management in order to diagnose, manage and control the underlying conditions which lead to chronic pain. This care is maintained at the lowest level of medications possible to properly manage a persons pain level within tolerable limits. The goal is to manage the pain not to remove pain completely as this is not typically possible with chronic pain conditions. Physical Therapy referrals, Supportive medications orders, TENs units orders, referrals for Surgical consultation and referrals to other specialists are all areas which will be managed by pain management providers.Â
