Acute Pain Management
What is pain?
Pain exists when something hurts, which creates an uncomfortable or bad sensation. The occurrence of pain also means something is wrong. A person is the best judge of his or her own pain.
What is acute pain?
Acute pain generally happens unexpectedly and is triggered by a specific occurrence. It is usually sharp and somewhat debilitating. A person experiencing acute pain will most likely end up seeing a doctor. Once the root cause of the pain is treated the pain goes away. This is why acute pain will typically last no more than four to six months. Here are some standard causes of acute pain:
- Burns or cuts
- Major or Minor Surgery
- Fractures and Broken bones
- Dental issues or after Dental work
- Urinary Tract Infections or STIs
After acute pain has gone away, a person can resume their daily routine and continue with life as they are used to.
