Pain management is a medical specialty. You have the right to obtain an opinion from a physician who specializes in pain management if your own physician seems unable or unwilling to provide adequate control for your pain.Your doctor or nurse may recommend that you try certain non drug treatments to supplement your pain medication. These treatments will help to make your medicines work better and relieve other symptoms, but they should not be used instead of your medicine.
