No. There is mild-to-moderate discomfort after a rhinoplasty and/or nasal surgery. Since there is no packing placed on the inside of the nose, this is typically not a painful operation.

A person who sees a back specialist may get an x-ray on the first visit. However, if the pain has only been present for a short period of time (less than 2- 4 weeks), and your doctor has no reason to believe you have a fracture (for example, osteoporosis, trauma, history of cancer, etc) then even an x-ray may be postponed until a later time.

Emails have come our way from doctors, complaining about hospital pharmacists who object to releasing the amount of morphine doctors wish to use. We believe that to know the wishes of both the patient and the close carers can often help doctors.

The body (human or equine) is made up of a vast number of cells. In many ways, the cells of the body act like tiny batteries, storing and releasing energy. Each cell has a measurable electrical charge and therefore there is a constant energy flow maintained between cells throughout the electrical circuitry of the body. <> When damage or trauma occurs, there is a disruption in the production of electricity and a measurable decrease in the flow of energy through the tissues involved.

Simply put, we don't really know but this is a very controversial area. There is clearly some discomfort. Many studies have been done to try to ascertain how much pain the baby feels.
