Alternative pain relief therapies reduce side effects.What is pain?
Pain can manifest itself in various ways; from a discomfort to tingling, burning, stinging, or prickling sensation. Any of these is an unpleasant sensation for those who suffer from it. However, pain can also be seen as a friend with a warning voice. The body uses it to communicate that something is not right and thanks to this signal, sent by the nervous system, the will to take action on the matter is activated. We deal with it faster and thus regain a sense of well-being as soon as possible.
Pain is a complex and individual experience; each brain interprets it in a different way and degree. Sensory, emotional and social aspects influence this and of course the cause of pain as well.
The International Association for the Study of Pain defined pain as “an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage”

How to choose a suitable pain treatment?
Depending on the cause of the pain and the person suffering from it, relief can be found in different forms and treatments. The World Health Organization (WHO) uses the “Analgesic Ladder” https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK554435/ , which consists of imagining that the patient is in an elevator, where he has 4 buttons to select according to the degree of pain he experiences, either (1) mild pain, (2) moderate pain, (3) severe and excruciating pain, (4) persistent pain. According to the selection, the professional in charge will supply the type of analgesic with respect to the degree of pain.
However, depending on the criteria of the professional and the level of pain that the patient manifests, analgesics with strong side effects can be used, which can eventually lead to greater health complications.
People who suffer from recurrent pain such as headache, back pain, menstrual pain and that are popularly known as non-threatening conditions, can find ways to relieve their ailments without necessarily going to a health professional. Homemade remedies or other popularly known solutions can be sufficient to relief pain for these conditions.
Persons that perceive intense pain and describe it as acute and abnormally severe, should seek the opinion of a professional as soon as possible.
Pain relief alternatives, without side effects.
Health professionals have a very challenging task to provide solutions to pain that are lasting and real for the patient, instead of simply masking the symptoms. It is recommended, as far as possible, to avoid collateral damage to health due to the side effects of using medications and to stay away from risky procedures that can cause more problems if these do not address the real cause. It is important to address the real cause of the condition.
In this sense, alternative functional medicine such as homeopathy, hypnotherapy, energy medicine, nutrition, ozone therapy, magnet therapy, acupuncture, to name a few, can be a way to treat pain in an integrative pain management program.
