Struggling through chronic
pain problems like arthritis, fibromyalgia, migraine headaches and nerve
and muscle pain does not have to be a daily activity. Pain management
is essential because uncontrolled pain prevents people from working
productively, enjoying activity, or taking pleasure in their usual roles
in the family and society. Chronic pain may have countless causes and
perpetuating factors, and therefore can be much more difficult to manage
than acute pain, requiring a multidisciplinary approach and customized
treatment protocols to meet the specific needs of each patient.
Many commonly prescribed
pain relief medications help the symptoms associated with chronic conditions
such as arthritis, but they can also result in stomach irritation or other
unwanted side effects. Compounding can provide alternative methods of
delivery by combining the ingredients of traditional oral pain medications
in a topical gel, cream or spray form that can be applied directly to
the site of the pain. For migraine sufferers, pain medication may be administered
through nasal sprays or flavored troches or lozenges. These dosage forms
bypass the gastrointestinal tract, and may provide optimal results with
less GI irritation.
