Management of pain in physical medicine integrates pharmacologic, interventional, and therapeutic modalities for the relief of pain and enhancement of function. Interventions include nerve blocks, TENS therapy, therapeutic exercise, and manual therapy. Individualized pain management regimens, directed by physiatrists, facilitate patient involvement in rehabilitation, enhance compliance, and increase functional recovery in general. Evolving pain management technology further optimizes outcomes.
