How to relieve muscle pain
To relieve severe pain, doctors at the Yusupov Hospital use narcotic analgesics. These drugs target opium receptors in the pain center of the brain. Since such drugs can be addictive, doctors prescribe them only during severe muscle-joint pain that is not relieved by other drugs.
To prevent the patient from developing addiction to the drug, narcotic analgesics are taken in a short course. They are combined with painkillers and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Promedol and tramadol are used in tablet form for muscle pain.
At the Yusupov Hospital, to relieve muscle and joint pain, they use the latest medications that can act on the opioid receptors of the brain, but are not addictive and do not have a psychotropic effect on the body. The effect of their use for muscle pain is similar to the effect of narcotic analgesics. Painkillers with opioid effects include nalbuphine.
