PAIN DIARY

Monitoring your Pain Levels using ‘Post Procedure Pain Diary’ is important.

Many of the initial pain relieving injections are designed to make sure we have found the cause of your pain.

1. No pain relief means either the target of the injections is not the cause of your pain, or it is the cause of your pain but will not respond to injections.

2. Short term pain relief means the target is involved in your pain and longer-term options need to be discussed.

3. Long term pain relief is a good outcome and means these injections can be part of your ongoing pain management strategy.
