How to treat post-op physical therapy pain? Current med works fine except for 4-6 times per day breakthrough.?We Answered:
Before even taking the anti-inflammatory, I would really discuss this with your surgeon. Many MDs are adament against using NSAID after surgical procedures because they actually are thought to delay the healing process.As far as which specific analgesics (pain meds) can help with breakthrough pain, I cannot answer that; however I will say that many of my patients who've gone through a musculotendonous repair do well with the addition of a muscle relaxer.
Ask to talk to his triage nurse...they can usually answer many questions and get some answers for you.

Fixed broken hand, do I need post physical therapy?We Answered:
Even after all of this time physical therapy will be able to help the pain and movement in your hand. You would have to see an orthopedic doctor to find out about the pin been removed. Nowadays there's so many different modalities that can be used, it's quite possible that it could be removed and something different done to help your hand.I do recommend an orthopedic doctor as soon as possible. Try taking Advil liquid capsules three times daily because they can help with the pain.

Can I fight my insurance on post-op physical therapy copay, and actually win?We Answered:
It's not an issue the insurance company will support you on...I'd say it's a waste of time. Many people try to get the provider to waive the co-pay, but this is actually illegal. However, I would check with Aetna to see if you have an out of pocket max...sometimes when this is reached, PT is covered at 100%.What type of surgery did you have? PT rarely is needed 3x a week for 3 months...it's often 3x a week initiallly, but often drops to 2x/wk after the 6th week, when you can be doing a lot more on your own.
Good luck in your rehab

Physical therapy for post immobilisation stiff joint?We Answered:
Go to www.webmd.com and it should offer some advise.Gentle stretching and exercise are in order, but it should also be done on the advise of a professional. Either a doc or a therapist.
Go to a therapist out of the village at least once, and pick their brain to find out what and how often, you should be doing things.
Too much can cause further damage, and not enough won't help a bit.
I had 'frozen shoulder' a few years back. Not many know that the shoulder moves in four different directions, but I found out quickly. The therapist gave me a list of exercises to do and told me to do them 4 times a day. (I didn't have a choice but go to him twice a week, a frozen joint is a lot different than one that's just weak from not being used. They actually had to 'break it free' and that wasn't fun at all).
It's that kind of advise you need to bring the joint back up to a normal range of movement.
Tiffany Said:
Does any one know what kind of physical therapy would be better for post-op wrist tendinitis?We Answered:
Gentle stretching could be an option such as like trying to lightly squeeze a soft ball (an example only).I would recommend a consultation with a physical therapist as well to see what they say but in the mean time here's the link to a site that might help you find more information:
