SATURDAY, OCTOBER 13, 2018 ❚ SIUSLAW NEWS 999 ✦ PUBLIC NOTICE Managing Moderate Pain Three Ways (NAPSA)—Latest re- search reveals that up to 90 percent of pain sufferers don’t get the relief they’re looking for with their cur- rent pain medication—but you don’t have to be among them. While everyone ex- periences pain differently, managing it may be simpler than many people realize. Understanding Pain Assessment First, it helps to know what sort of pain you have. According to Dr. Bob Arnot, an award-winning journal- ist, author of 12 books on nutrition and health, and previously Chief Medical Correspondent for NBC and CBS News, “Pain assessment for patients with muscle pain and arthritis is often done by using pain scales that allow the patient to describe the level of their pain. Once the level of pain is determined, an appropri- ate treatment or analgesic can be identifi ed—includ- ing OTC topical medication. “When determining the level of pain, it is important to provide answers to your doctor, including: What were you doing when the pain started? What caused it? What makes the pain bet- ter or worse? What does the pain feel like—dull, sharp, stabbing, burning? Where is the pain located? Does it radiate? Does the pain in- terfere with activities? Does the pain force you to lie or sit down? How long does the pain last? How often does it occur? Are you ever awakened by it? “Doctors will seek to measure the severity of pain on a scale of zero to 10, with zero being no pain and 10 being unimaginable, unspeakable pain. There are several pain scales being used today, ranging from numerical and graphics. The scales follow the same order for explaining the intensity of pain: mild, moderate and severe.” Minor pain levels gen- erally do not interfere with most day-to-day activities. People with mild pain are able to adapt to pain with medication or devices such as cushions. Moderate pain, on the other hand, inter- feres with many activities and often requires lifestyle changes, as the person is unable to adapt to the pain. Examples range from an average toothache to a sprained ankle to bad back pain. How To Treat Moderate Pain Fortunately, there are several ways to manage moderate pain that don’t involve reaching for a pill. Three of the most effective are: Physical therapy: Physi- cal therapy can be an ef- fective way to alleviate all You don’t have to put up with even moder- ate pain. Yoga, physi- cal therapy and topical medication can help. types of musculoskeletal and neuropathic types of pain. A primary goal of physical therapy is to help chronic pain patients be- come stronger. In addition, physical therapy can teach people how to move safely and functionally in ways that they haven’t been able to in some time—helping them to avoid injury or re- injury. Yoga: Recent studies re- ported by the National Insti- tutes of Health suggest that a carefully adapted set of yoga postures may help re- duce pain and improve the ability to walk and move. Yoga typically combines physical postures, breathing techniques, and meditation Brought to you by this newspaper in partnership with PUBLIC NOTICES Always in your newspaper: Now in your inbox, too.

Adds the Western Australia Department of Health, “Yoga is very help- ful in treating some of the mechanical aspects of pain; for example, when there are tight muscles which con- tribute to pain.” In the Annals of Internal Medicine, Dr. Robert Saper wrote, “Both yoga and phys- ical therapy are excellent nondrug approaches for low back pain.” Topical analgesics: For many people, however, the fi rst choice should be a topi- cal solution: the Salonpas® Pain Relief Patch LARGE. The Salonpas Pain Relief Patch LARGE is the only OTC pain reliever (oral or topi- cal) labeled to relieve mild to tougher, moderate pain associated with arthritis, sprains, strains and back- ache. It is labeled to relieve mild to moderate pain for up to 12 hours, and was FDA approved just like prescrip- tion medicines. Advises physical thera- pist Dave Endres, “The new Salonpas Pain Relief Patch LARGE contains two pow- erful pain-relieving ingre- dients, menthol and methyl salicylate, which go right to the site of pain. In my busi- ness, keeping pain at bay for as long as possible is a key imperative. If there is a choice between oral or topical pain therapies, we encourage the topical route. We encourage the topical route as it avoids the ad- verse effects that have been observed with oral dosage forms.” In fact, according to a recent Danish study of pain relief, “it is time to acknowl- edge the potential health risk of [oral] diclofenac and to reduce its use. Diclofenac should not be available over the counter, and when prescribed, should be ac- companied by an appropri- ate front package warning about its potential risks… In conclusion, our data sup- port that initiation of diclof- enac poses a cardiovascular health risk, both compared with no use, paracetamol use, and use of other tradi- tional NSAIDs.” Fortunately, the patch is now double the size with the power to target large pain areas.
