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

or relaxation.
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.
