THE PRINCIPAL THREE TYPES OF MEDICINE

There are three types of medical treatment, according to theory:

·????????Curative: the act of curing someone of a disease

·????????Palliative: it is used to treat sickness symptoms.

·????????Preventative: intended to delay the start of a disease

An additional therapy, such as antibiotics to treat strep throat, can also be suggested by the doctor. In this situation, symptomatic therapy, such as an antalgic, may be used in conjunction with the medication to reduce pain.

Other therapies

The following methods can be used to categorise the treatments that doctors recommend: Techniques in medicine, surgery, or medico. In general, a medical therapy involves the administration of medications, whether or not they are injectable, along with dietary and lifestyle recommendations, such as modifying specific habits. Medical therapies can include physical therapy, speech therapy, psychiatry, and physiotherapy. Surgery must often be used as a last resort to address some conditions. Such tests like radiography, endoscopy, and phototherapy fall between conventional therapies and surgery.

Health providers may use various particular techniques to treat, relieve, or prevent a condition. In any case, observation is a crucial component of care, just as frequently checking blood pressure or requesting an X-ray are. Some therapies and methods used in alternative medicine, such as acupuncture, balneotherapy, supplementation, detoxification, or homoeopathy, may also be recommended.

Medical Interventions for Pain Management

There are numerous ways to treat pain, including by mouth, through suppositories, through patches, through tubes put in blood vessels, or by injection under the skin. The amount of painkillers you receive may be controlled via a pump that is supplied to you. Medical options include the following, which may be offered alone or in conjunction with others:

Opioids

Oxycodone, hydromorphone, methadone, fentanyl, meperidine, codeine, hydrocodone, and propoxyphene are examples of opioids.

Other painkillers

N-methyl D-aspartate receptor antagonists, alpha-2 agonists, anaesthetics, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (including naproxen, celecoxib, and ibuprofen), tricyclic antidepressants, anticonvulsants, and anticholinergics are a few examples.

Additional painkillers

Such as surgery, radiation therapy, spinal infusions, and nerve blocks.

Medications for Additional Symptoms

A serious sickness can have other symptoms in addition to pain. You might be experiencing other symptoms, such as appetite loss, anxiety, constipation, or shortness of breath. Similar to discomfort, there are numerous ways to get relief. The most typical signs of serious illness are included below, along with possible treatments you can take or options a palliative doctor can discuss with you.

Breathing difficulty

Adjust your posture to be more upright; open the windows; use a fan, humidifier, or air conditioner; stay away from pungent aromas; and locate and get rid of any triggers that are the problem.

Nausea and diarrhea

Avoid offensive tastes and smells, stay away from fatty and fried foods, take the majority of your prescriptions right after a meal, savour a hard candy or mint, eat small, frequent meals, and practise relaxing techniques.

Constipation

Prune juice is one of the foods and drinks that can be helpful, but the most effective course of action is probably medical treatment.

Delirium or confusion

The best way to address this fairly common symptom is with a doctor's guidance. It may be brought on by drugs, an infection, or organ failure near the end of life. Family members can be supportive by speaking in a soothing, low-key manner, minimising noise, and avoiding night-time interruptions.

Reduced appetite

There are numerous causes of lack of appetite, and the doctor can recommend the best courses of action. At the end of life, losing one's appetite is common and does not indicate starvation. Even with very little food, people can survive for a very long time, and the insertion of an artificial feeding tube occasionally shortens life. Participating in menu planning, having dietary limitations (such low-salt or cholesterol) lifted, eating tiny portions of a favourite dish, avoiding food with strong flavours, and consuming simple-to-swallow foods, like pudding or pureed food, are all things that can occasionally enhance appetite.
