Painkillers are
very effective to deal with pain…that’s why they’re called painkillers. But one
of the problems with pain killers is people can have a dependence on them, and
with that dependence, they can run into issues. One thing that’s essential is
that if a doctor gives a patient a pain killer, the patient should know it is a
short-term solution, not the end-all. If it’s an end-all solution, people
ultimately become so addicted to them they have no other answer but to use
them. That is not where doctors want to be in the management of pain. What doctors
want to do is use them as an ally, not a crutch.
