The Treatment of Cancer Pain
January 11th 2009 -
Medicines can eliminate or alleviate cancer pain in most cases completely.
If the cancer condition progressed very far and increasingly metastases develops, pain can impair the quality of life. An effective pain therapy is then just as importantly as the cancer therapy. Who has pain, this should absolutely communicate to its physician – the physician does not see the pain.
Remember: Unnecessary suffering must be today no more, because there are very good medicines, which can eliminate or alleviate cancer pain to a large extent with 95 per cent of the women completely. If your physician cannot help you satisfyingly, then you should turn to special pain specialists.
At the beginning the physician clarifies, where and as strong the pain is. A pain diary can be helpful for the answer of these questions.
The best pain therapy is natural to remove the tumor. If this is not possible, then medicines can release from the pain. The medical pain therapy depends on a proven stage pattern, which recommends the World Health Organization.
Stage 1: At first only easily analgesic medicines are given (not opioid containing pain killers).
Stage 2: Later – if the weakly effective means the pain no longer sufficiently alleviate – medicines with stronger effectiveness are used (weak to medium strong Opioids).
Stage 3: As last and strongest means strongly effective Opioids (e.g. morphine) is available.
