Our goal is to give you clear information about pain relief and include you in decisions about your care. We will take your pain seriously and respond quickly. You will be part of the conversation about different ways to manage your condition.
You can help by telling your healthcare provider about any new pain, pain that does not go away, or concerns about taking medicine.
