Health Information
Some pain during your hospital stay is normal. Your doctor will explain what to expect and how long it may last based on what is causing it.
Learn how your care team treats pain, how to describe your pain clearly to help them provide the best relief, and tips for managing pain safely after you leave the hospital.
Pain can be managed effectively in the hospital, with your care team helping you stay as comfortable as possible.
Pain management in the hospital means your pain is checked and treated using medicine, different therapies and compassionate care to support your recovery and well-being.
