subject: Pain Relief From Physical Therapy Or Pain Medication [print this page] Treatment of pain can be accomplished by both pain medication as well as physical therapy. The approach of the two is different. In physical therapy treatment, healing and the restoration of health is brought about by getting to prevent injuries and prevent any kind of disabilities.
Physical therapy is usually done by referrals of doctors who are skilled and educated in this field. They work in a periodic way in order to ensure that the patient is getting rid of his or her pain and discomforts. They can usually take the help of passive or active therapy methods in order to achieve this. Under passive therapy, TENS units, heat/ice packs and ultrasound methods are used. Under active therapy we have strengthening exercises, stretching regimes, pain relief exercises and low impact aerobic conditioning.
But the physical therapy is one such process that can prove to be quite time consuming. It can be very effective if you have good lot of time everyday almost to devote to this. As such it takes time for the physical therapist to understand the body needs of each and every individual for that matter. The alignments of each and every individual is different, the response will also be quite different hence. So if you are fortunate then your body can immediately react to these things very effectively and you can be healed of this problem very soon. So it requires some amount of patience to find the good results very quickly.
Now we would deal with the pain medication part of this topic. Pain relief can also be brought about by administering proper medicines like tramadol which is very effective for solving the problems of pain. Usually you can have it ordered online as well. The service will be quick and this mode of treatment is such where the patient would be relieved of his pain very quickly, much quickly than compared to physical therapy methods actually. Apart from tramadol Paracetamol and NSAID s are also very effective in restoring a condition of relief in patients actually.
Now let us understand the action of tramadol. This chemical happens to be a weak opioid which is again in turn converted into a different compound by the liver of the patient as soon as it enters the body. The action of tramadol can be mainly divided into two different categories.
In the first action a very weak morphine like effect is found and in the second mode of action it acts by stimulating the descending nerves from the brain which is turn acts by inhibiting the dorsal horn of the spinal cord. And this is achieved by preventing the reuptake of noradrenaline and serotonin. Basically if we explain it in simple words then the action is simply to prevent the brain from sending responses to the pain receptors that had sent stimulation to the brain some while ago. So in this way the person does not get to feel the pain.
