Post Surgery Pain

If you are having surgery soon, you may wonder what kind of pain you can expect to feel afterward. You could experience movement pain, throat pain or muscle pain or a combination of all three. We let you play a major role in your post-surgery pain treatment program. We discuss the options with you and let you help in the decision making process.

There are several pain treatment options. Intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) uses a computerized pump that safely allows you to push a button then it will deliver pain medicine to you. Patient-controlled epidural analgesia uses a pump to deliver pain medication into an epidural catheter that is placed in your back. Nerve blocks are used when only a small part of your body is affected. And, of course, oral pain medication is an option.
