Pain management is essential to recovery because even when the underlying condition is stable, uncontrolled pain prevents patients from living their life as they envisioned it by interfering with work productivity or preventing them from taking pleasure in their favourite activities. Pain can take the form of headaches, muscle groups strained from sports activities, or secondary to a work injury or accident, Acute pain can easily evolve into chronic pain, which can become more challenging to treat. Chronic pain may have a varying number of factors & causes, therefore requires a multidisciplinary approach and customized treatment protocols to meet the unique needs of each patient.

Thus, Optimal treatment may involve the use of multiple medications that possess pain-relieving properties, everyone individually targeting a different pain signal being sent out to the brain.  when combining multiple medications that utilize different pathways and mechanisms of action to alter the sensation of pain, physicians have found that smaller concentrations of each medication may be used effectively.
Most commercially available medications help relieve symptoms of chronic pain but often come 
with a slew of undesired side effects, at times becoming prohibiting and at others become a burden.
